RE: Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Week 5 - @ziggypepper
Thanks for joining the #payitforward contest. We appreciate your participation in finding undervalued Steemians that are producing good, original content. I have visited your featured authors. Unfortunately, I couldn't read the first entry, but it was copied and pasted information about Steembasicincome translated to Vietnamese. Because I support SBI, I gave a comment and small upvote to the author. The last two authors are not producing original content. The 2nd author reposted an earlier Steemit post using Parley. The 3rd author uses photos obtained on the internet and then copies and pastes wiki information. While I don't hold you completely accountable for the actions of others, I do ask that you feature authors that are truly contributing original content to Steemit for this contest. All the best to you.
I'm really a non-professional, I'm just interacting with the community, I'm sorry if something goes wrong, I think I should improve something. I am really grateful for your candidness.
I used the browser translate function, and he did ask permission to translate, and he did use some of his own interpretations of the post, so while it was mostly copy and paste job, I think he really did want to take and make the information readable and understandable to his Vietnamese Audience. I wish I would have been a bit more diligent on the other two, but will let my votes stand as @ziggypepper did try to feature a few people. I had a serious internal debate on the second one with myself about the parley post, but caved to the nicer side, (which I don't do often).
I can confirm that @carlpei's post was a translation with permission, as part of a coordinated initiative to expand SBI within the #vn community.
