Second Curatorial Report of @steemcurator08 by Life and Humanity Curation Team
.png)
This is Life and Humanity curation team - The Optimum Seven, reporting their second week of curatorial activities.
I along with my team (@anroja, @disconnect, @ngoenyi, @olesia, @saracampero, @svm038) take turns throughout the week to check posts in the #actofkindness and #thediarygame tags.
Among the two tags that we check, #thediarygame is the widely used tag on Steemit so posts are coming in every few minutes. But my efficient and dedicated team members spend some time and check all posts to ensure that no quality and rule abiding post is ignored.
First we check club status of the author. If he's eligible then we rule out use of bid-bots, any kind of plagiarism and make sure the content is exclusive to Steemit. Then we read the post and only if it is of good quality then choose it for curation.
We also try to curate as many unique authors as we can so we try that no author is curated more than twice a week. Also, to use the account efficiently, we collect links for curation before time and as soon as the account gets full, we start voting to avoid any waste of voting power.
Note: We tried to cover as many regions and communities as we could. If you see small number of votes in some area then it's only due to rules violation. We request community administrators and country reps to guide the members about rules.

Post Link : The Diary Game III temporada|19-02-2021/sábados cumpleaños de mi hermana y elección de la reina del carnaval de la comunidad| por @thairisdc
Nominated by : @disconnect
Reason : It was a simple diary yet delivered in a structured way. The first attention grabber for me was the animated pictures she used in her diary. They were designed according to the described day, which means to say that she had put some extra effort into the diary. All the pictures were captioned, but it can be improved by giving the information according to each picture than copying the same tag. I believe @thairisdc will make an adjustment on that in her next diary.

Thank you for a very well presented report, and some great curation.
Congratulation sir,♥️
Congratulations, today steemcurator has 63 reputations. Hopefully 64 reputation will be there soon.
Thank you for this generous remark. I am sure my whole team is uplifted by this comment, like me.
I have a litte query...
I observed, some posts that are voted by steemcurator accounts (04-08) are not getting votes by booming. Is there such a rule?
I ever got an upvote from steemcurator but I also got an upvote from a booming from the same post, I don't think there such a rule for that
@eliany Congratulations!
Thank you
Helloo how're you all. I hope y'all are doing good. I wanted to ask something. What's the criteria of dividing the posts region wise? Does it depend upon the number of posts coming in from that particular country? For instance, Venezuela has 45 posts curated this week and 43 the last. Azerbaijan, one the other hand only has 1, similar to last week as well. So just wanted to know, does the load of posts from countries also a big factor while curating? Or is the quality content found in particular areas?
Mainly, we follow the tag and choose posts based on quality and compliance of rules, regardless of country and community. Some regions have distinctively higher number of valid posts like Venezuela and Indonesia, so they are getting more votes. Azerbaijan has comparatively very less number of valid posts.
Having said that, we still try to curate posts from different regions and languages to ensure widest reach and avoid centered support.
If community administrators and country reps guide users about rules and help them improve the quality of their posts then ofcourse there will be more even spread of votes.
Maybe we could tell the community admins (communities which aren't getting much support) to compile the weekly top posts, posts that abide by the rules. In this way, the curation will get easier as well as the exposure would significantly increase as well. To avoid the centralization of votes, (one thing that I fear in this community curators Initiative) the curation team could also have a look at the nominated posts as well as general posts as well, which contain the relevant tag.
Ps: this is for the communities which are getting less than 3 posts curated in a week.
Communities have booming to support their best posts the day. We can't rely on community admins for finding posts for us because then what will be our job? Also, each community has different set of rules like beneficiaries and delegations. How can we be sure that a quality post isn't missed just because the user didn't follow the particular community rules.
Our aim is simple, to support quality and basic rules abiders.
Let me share my observation of these two weeks..
In #thediarygame tag, most of the posts are from Steem SEA or are in Spanish language. I noticed that users from these regions are mostly part of clubs, their posts are well organized and hardly anyone uses bidbots.
When I saw most votes going there, I literally tried searching for different communities and countries like Italy, Germany, Srilanka. I didn't find a single post in this tag from Srilanka. I couldn't find a quality post from Italy or Germany in this tag. When I finally found one, I literally wished for the author to be following rules but I was disappointed to see his delegation to justyy.
Then I searched Steemit Pakistan, knowing that everyone there write diaries, how come I don't see much posts in the tag. Upon a little research, I found that users are not using the correct tag. Although, I literally messaged in all our groups to use the right tag but it was of not much use.
So this is an actual little story of behind the scenes.
We have no issues checking every single post coming in the tag but we only wish people to put some efforts in their posts and follow basic rules. The votes will automatically go to them.
P.S. In the next report, I will try to add ratio of number of posts coming from each region. It can explain the vote spread.
Well it is more than obvious, Venezuelans and Indonesians are in the majority and are loyal to thediarygame, and that approximately 10% of the overall active users in both countries are supported is a good figure.
But, look, everything flows normally, each of us has our 24 hours in one week coverage schedule, only posts created within that range can be supported and reviewed, no one can go a day earlier or two days earlier.
That is, if there is a good publication in the week it will be reviewed and supported. And so the whole week is covered. In my case I select the best of all the 24 hours, and then I select the best of the best. We do NOT support by communities, at least not me. It is by tag in order of time posted.
This is where you see the real effort of representatives and community leaders in teaching users how to make decent publications. That is to say that most of the most pleasant, reliable, and quality posts are found in these two countries, for this category of course.
It also happens that many users do not use the tag correctly, the tag should always be within the first 4. And this always happens more frequently in users that are not Venezuelan or Indonesian, that is to say, that are better guided.
This is a curation team that evaluates quality, or at least what I do. If in my turn there are 40 posts from Venezuelans and all of them are better than the posts of the others, obviously I will select them. Or if there are 40 publications from Pakistan that are better than the rest of the publications created that day, of course I will select them. But these examples are difficult and never happen.
Or do you agree that they keep rewarding low quality content?
Great report from your team. Steem On
