Curation effort by IndiaUnited

in #curation7 years ago

One of the main objectives of the collective is to find and promote content creators, writers, artists, musicians, photographers, artisans etc.

We are starting the effort with inputs from @amarbir @manojm @rainsa @sayee

Draft of the rules are below. To be updated.


Criteria to be considered to be curated:

  1. Posts needs to have good grammar, be informative and entertaining and original. More than 75% of the content should be original in any case.
  2. Supporting photos and art MUST always be attributed with credits to original authors. Citing Google as source will not be acceptable.
  3. Original artworks gets high priority even if length and other criteria's are not met - say a painting, work of an upcoming photographer, work of an upcoming musician
  4. Original Photographs with informational content are most welcome - historical places, incidents, travelogues etc.
  5. Upheld's and show cases the cultural and historical aspects
  6. Portrays life style - but should NOT be just a random photo of someone working in a field.
  7. Exceptions of extra-ordinary works for new comers can be considered & request them to avoid plagiarism etc. ie, we should not be promoting them, but can give an upvote and politely ask them to use original content.
  8. Random photos of a travel doesn't qualify to be a travelogue. It should have a documentation of the socio-economical and geographical aspects of the area and similar content to supplement photographs.
  9. Portraits and other photographs should have EXIF and equipment information to make sure that its not plagiarized.
