Closed ForestSoleil closed 2 years ago

ForestSoleil commented 3 years ago

Write article on Everything You Need to Know - How to Become a Verified Project on Giveth.io Blocked by the need to determine and confirm the Project Verification process. Blocked by the GIV Token Economy launch. Blocked by the launch of GIVbacks and announcement of Verified Projects.

Forest/Ashley to write.

Justify why we do it. Making sure projects are credible.
How to
Incentive - we are a donor run platform. We care about the donors and want to do some curation for them.

I wrote this up as an answer to the question "What constitutes a great project" in the #contribute channel on Discord:

Verifiable project deliverables and participants
A well documented solution toward solving a problem
Details on how funds will be used and the impact expected from doing the work
Links to find out more about what's already been done
Who to contact for more information and/or how to get involved..

Danibelle commented 3 years ago

I'll add that aligning the problem/solution with one or more Giveth categories/tags is a factor

As discussed in today's call, let's make this post a combination of

how to get verified (and make a good project so it gets verified), and
how to make a project traceable https://github.com/Giveth/giveth-planning/issues/300

can be augmented from https://github.com/Giveth/giveth-planning/issues/335

Ashley to augment #355 and add in details as to why this is beneficial for projects

WhyldWanderer commented 2 years ago

I have created a hackMD document and started to augment this document into a blog post.

In the governance call yesterday we discussed moving away from TRACE and not promoting its use.

How will that affect this blog post since the idea is to encourage people to make their projects traceable?

laurenluz commented 2 years ago

UGH you're right. how far did you get on it? What if just put the project verification details + GIVbacks as the one blog post and then have "verified projects can also get on TRACE" as a single sentence linking to the documentation?

WhyldWanderer commented 2 years ago

I honestly think that is the best approach.

We already have documentation about the process that we can link to or direct people to if they want.

This way, the info is there but we're not actively promoting it on our blog.

laurenluz commented 2 years ago

ok let's do it that way. I'll put this in the icebox.
