RE: Mapping Animals in US Agriculture
Hi @somethingburger, thanks for sharing your agricultural research and for publishing your data!
In an effort to make your content more visible and engage a broader range of audiences here - you might want to consider using the #steemstem tag to tap the shoulder of @steemstem (a scientific community here that curates content like this.)
There's also @utopian-io. They curate open source projects much like this one if you use their tag #utopian-io (as a primary tag) and #____ depending on what category this falls under. Learn more about their curation guidelines, here.
In addition to what @sndbox just said, keep in mind that @steemstem only curates posts that are over 1000 words (which this one isnt) and those that are structured. Therefore if you want to be eligible for their upvotes make sure to have at least 3 paragraphs, where one will introduce the whole article and one will summarize it.
I myself failed to receive upvotes from them for my thesis articles, since they do not meet the required format, but you will know better then I did back then:).
Hi @fingersik. I just want to correct something regarding the words count. Actually, there is no such requirement. The author can write as much or as simple as they would like to and still be curated. Apart from that, things like a minimum of 500 words or a specific number of paragraphs are just some guidelines to help newbies to structure their own article. Although people were less likely to receive a vote from steemstem if their article is too short but if it is good, then it would be curated.
Write your article as creative as you can, cite your article's references and images' sources and you are good to go. If you were not curated it can be due to a few reasons but writing less than 1000 words is not one of them.
Thanks for the clarification! The information i provided was given by different Steemstem mentor. I’m glad you corrected me...in that case my articles clearly sucked:D
Thank you @fingersik! This is good to know.
Thanks @sndbox! I've adjusted the tags and will continue to open my work up to more curators.
