Contest: My Tips Before Doing Content Curation (My tips before voting on content)

source

Welcome to my blog. I hope all is really well for each and every one of us here. Today I would like to join in this awesome contest, whose purpose is for each and every one of us to attempt at least all the questions and give our view on them, and today I will do it justice.

Voting is an activity that is mostly done by those who have huge steempower and also by those who have less steempower, and before distributing your vote to any account or post, you need to be extremely careful because not all accounts here on Steemit are real.

What is your assessment before curating a post?

As a steemian, there are some certain things we have to check before going into a post to curate; we need to be extremely careful because most people publish plagiarized content, images without source, and also some people create posts using AI (artificial intelligence), which is really wrong. As a steemian, we all should remain original and create posts that are from our heads and not contents that we copy from the web. Here are some assessments you have to carry out before going in to curate a post.

1. Word length:most people here on this platform are not really creative, so they don't really create posts that are really lengthy and satisfying. Before going in to curate a post, we should first check the length of the post. As advised by the Steemit team, posts that are below 300 should not be supported.

2. Creativity: To curate a post, we should first check how creative that user is in creating that particular post, some people just wake up and post anything that comes into their head without even taking a deep breath, so to curate a post, we should check the creativity of that author.

3. Plagiarism-free: To curate a post, we should first check if that particular post is plagiarism-free. Just as instructed by the Steemit team, we should not create posts that are plagiarized and should give a clear warning to the victim.

4. Post layout and markdown: If I ever have the opportunity to handle a voting account, there are many things I will like to put into consideration before curating a post. I will have to check on the post layout and the markdown style of the post.

5. Spelling and punctuation: I have noticed in many posts that I go through that so many people fail to read their posts before publishing them, and this has led to so many problems and issues with the spelling and punctuation.

What tool or app do you use to ensure that a piece of content is exclusive?

True, exclusive contents are always superior and fun to read through. That's why we should join hands and fight against those people that come to the platform to spam and publish plagiarized contents. There have been many tools introduced to the steemians that give us a quick opportunity to scan our posts for plagiarism before publishing them, and these tools are really important for every steemian.

In order to ensure that your post is exclusive, I advise you to go and start using the Duplicate Checker online plagiarism tool. This tool is actually the best and most wanted, and almost all the steemians on this platform use it each and every time they want to check a post for plagiarism. The tool is actually free, and you can also choose to subscribe for a better user experience and a scan of words that are more than 1k. You can use this tool by simply copying in the text you would like to check into the designated box, then filling out the captcha, and then you are free to scan your post for plagiarism.

What will you do if the content you want to curate is plagiarized?

So many new steemians have fallen a victim of this and that's why it is always announced in the platform that they don't tolerate plagiarism of any kind, if I eventually find out that a post I want to curate is a plagiarized post, I will automatically withdraw myself and hold my vote, the next thing I have to do us to give a clear warning to that particular author and also urge other moderator and admin of that community to be aware of such user, the next thing to do is to keep monitoring that user and always scanning all his or her post to ensure that he does not do such mistakes again.

Thank you for organizing this great contest in this community. I am just coming back to realize that this community deserves to grow and be well known on this platform, so I will try all my best to see that I play a perfect and good role in making it come through. I will like to invite @fortwis09, @madilyn02, and @vincent100 to participate in this contest.
