About new rates and rewards in Wiki Subgovernance
Yesterday (20.11.2020) new Wiki Members have made an important decision to change the rates and rewards in Wiki Subgovernance.
The following rates were accepted (the price is indicated in TON for the simple-medium-strong level, respectively):
■ translation: 10 - 12 - 15
■ rewriting: 10 - 12 - 15
■ chief editing: 1000 - 1500 - 2000
■ tech support: 1000 - 1500 - 2000
■ improvement service: 40 ton / 8-hour working day
■ administrative support: 120 ton / 8-hour working day
■ rates for copypaste are excluded
Besides, for all WRCs, we set a maximum reward cap of 5,000 Tons per one contestant if the WRC is restarted approximately once a month. In case the WRC restarts with a different frequency,then this limit must be changed proportionally.
You can discuss the passed proposal on the forum
IMPORTANT: these changes are effective immediately and will apply to all FUTURE Wiki Renewal Contests. Rates and rewards for the current contest remain unchanged!

Rules for creating articles:
The requirement is that the article should provide information about technologies and ecosystem of Free TON in simple terms.
Technical articles should explain the topic in plain language.
Articles about companies connected with Free TON should contain information about what these companies do for Free TON. Detailed information about the company is unnecessary.

We present to the authors an updated spreadsheet of needed articles with a separate tab for each language!
Advantages of the new format:
-
now each language can have its own structure and organization of content different from the English version of the Wiki
-
each tab contains links to articles for this particular language, not the original English version
-
a separate tab for each language greatly simplifies the work of review editors, and also makes navigation through the table easier
-
no need to write subheadings with Wiki categories in the table
-
no need to put a “cross” for recently written articles, you just need to remove your username after writing
How to use the spreadsheet?
-
Suggest the article, necessary in your opinion, in Wiki chat, discuss its necessity and usefulness for the Wiki
-
If the article is approved by the community, add its title to the column Article for your language
-
Enter your Telegram username in the column Reserved, next to the selected article (only if the article is not reserved by another author)
-
After completing the article, add a hyperlink to your work to the column Article (Ctrl + K, insert a link to the article)
-
Wait for the quality assessment from the review editors (appears in the column Editor comment)

Dear community members
The extent of your payments for Wiki Renewal Contest depends on the points given to you by the jury.
The final score corresponds to percentages of the amount in the Team Report.
For example, with 9 points, or 90%, and the amount of 1000 TON in the Team Report, you will get 900 TON.
You can see the final reward for each submission in the spreadsheet Wiki Costs and Payments.

About the selection of new Wiki Subgovernance members
We decided to hold a Zoom video meeting for Membership candidates. The use of a webcam is obligatory for all candidates. We ask you to prepare an answer to the question: “In your opinion, what can be improved in Wiki Subgovernance and how?”
A conference for English-speaking candidates will be on Tuesday.
Choose the most suitable time for you and vote in the poll in our chat.
If you can’t join the meeting at a selected time, write a message about the time it is convenient for you in the work chat, tagging @yulvla.

Don’t translate articles that haven’t been approved yet
The results of the #12 Wiki Renewal Contest showed that many translators neglected to approve articles for translation.
Please read more in the pinned message in the working chat and in the announcement.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that the jury can give fewer points for submissions with the translation of not approved articles.
