RE: Weekly overview of the Blog category - Week 10, 2019
Nice to see the new guidelines. It took a long time. But it's finally here.
Great job @didic.
However, I have minor issues with some part of the questionnaire. While I'm aware my opinion won't really matter, I just want to let it off my chest..
This part
D. What is the topic category of this blog post?
- Project introduction or project promotion by project or person appointed by project.
- Development log / release notes / project news by project or person appointed by project.
- Project promotion by non-aligned person.
- The topic is barely related to the project.
I think it would only favour open source projects built on Steem. Because it would be easier to gain access to these project owners to confirm if actually they appointed contributors to write about their projects.
But for projects outside steem, how feasible is it? Judging by the fact that Utopian says if you wish to contact a project owner on Github, don't do it on Utopian's behalf.
Although the wording may be quite restrictive as is, I am in favour of seeing questions going in that direction. This year there have been too many redundant posts with little to no actual value or something new and the goal of gaining the reward was too obvious. Utopian nor anybody else do gain from a ton of posts that tightly follow few points and try to be as extensive as possible just to meet the highest points in some kind of evaluation.
I have some concerns about this question
Is the submission enjoyable to read?Hopefully, it is going to get a reasonable scoring and won't be broken as is in the anti-abuse category. Moreover, such evaluation questions will benefit from crowd use (ie. more reviewers in the evaluation process).Let's see how it works. I am looking forward to seeing the category refreshed after so long time. There was only minority of good posts, imho.
I understand the need for the questionnaire to be strict to curb abuse @espoem. But what I'm saying is quite reasonable too.
I don't know how feasible it is for a contributor to get appointed by a project owner. On the blockchain, it is feasible, but off it, it isn't.
So once again, that part of the questionnaire will favour only some set of people and that is project owners on the blockchain. It's kind of restricting open source to the blockchain only.
I thought the questionnaire was supposed to fair for everyone contributing.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this @didic. Although like I said, the questionnaire is not open for a debate.
Once again, great job done.
