Dear Steemit Team,

We sincerely thank you for giving us the golden opportunity to apply as community curators. We are applying for the March curation program, as we have formed a separate team dedicated to supporting newcomers.

The primary focus of this team is to support and help new users joining the platform to grow. It must also be ensured that the team's activities are not limited only to voting support but also verify the authenticity of new users, provide them with necessary guidelines, and encourage them to build their reputation on the platform.

The team will also check whether any account is abusing the rules, and the team members will work to detect such instances. Following all the rules and thinking about the betterment of the platform, this team is applying for the March curation program to support newcomers. This team will serve as a mentor for newcomers so we are introducing to you Team SteemMentors.

3.- Why we can be a good curation team ( How will we deal with the curator program points?)

Our primary goal will be to guide new users in adhering to platform rules and improving their post quality. Our team members have previously applied these methods in building their own communities, making them fully experienced in providing the correct guidelines to newcomers and we are very alert to fake and duplicate accounts created just to get rewards.

We will not limit our task only to voting for newcomers. We will check their complete profiles and provide them with the necessary guidance to improve on this platform. We will also encourage them to engage in healthy blogging and build their reputation by interacting with the community.

Our team member have previous experience in serving in newcomer communities where they gain proficiency in validating and verifying user authenticity using appropriate tools. This expertise will be healpful in leading this team.

All our team members are skilled in using various tools and detecting abuse and they are experienced in checking for plagiarism, Copyright and AI content.

So consider us as a Newcomer focused team in November and we ensure that we carry out our important duties properly.

Best Regards,

@ripon0630
