MEGA Contest - Calling The Best Contributions for WordPress!
In the effort of bringing more contributions in Utopian.io from diverse communities I am opening this contest for WordPress today!
WordPress is the most famous blogging platform in the world and it is Open Source: https://github.com/wordpress/wordpress
Utopian.io rewards contributions to Open Source projects with the Utopian Bot, powered by 560K SP and with the votes of the wonderful and supportive community around it.
The Best Top 10 Contributions Will Get a 100% Power Vote from Utopian! Over $30 for a single vote!
What is a contribution to an Open Source project?
A project is Open Source when its codebase is public and editable, accessible by everyone. WordPress is Open Source, but also Steemit is Open Source, Busy is Open Source, Chrome is Open Source, many Facebook technologies are Open Source and there are millions of Open Source projects out there. Most of them are hosted on the famous platform Github.com. Utopian.io links your contributions with the related project on Github.
Contributing means you are doing something concrete for a specific Open Source project and using Utopian.io to share your work. The work must be verifiable and there must be a real effort behind it or the Utopian moderators will never allow your post in Utopian.

Very nice sir great
Very nice sir great
It is nice to see my name on the Sponsors list. My best wishes for utopian.io
nice bro.Hi friends I hoop you upvote and following me.
is the contribution made from utopian.io actually pushed to their github?
@cryptoctopus not yet and would make no sense now. The community is growing and trying to stick to the rules. Rules are evolving and quality is increasing but this is not a magical step that can happen in few days of operation. I am not going to push anything on Github that may be seen as spammy or unrelated or stupid. Let the community get the hands on it, understand this properly and then we can start filling the Github feeds.
so it is possible? Awesome!
so it is possible? Awesome!
Yes of course. We will start by allowing github login for the project owners and after the contributors, when the community gets the rules properly. Everyone will have the option to push the post on the github feed as well. Step by step. We don't want Utopian to be banned by github becase does notmeet their quality standard or approach :)
