Congratulations to all the teams.

Please would one person from each team confirm acceptance in a comment below and include their contact details (Discord / Telegram).

Then would the other members of each team add their acceptance to their respective starter comment along with their contact details (Discord / Telegram).

We will then be in touch to provide the keys for the accounts.

Curation Guidelines

The App teams will be voting on posts connected with their respective apps.

The Newcomers team will be voting on posts from newcomers during their first three months on the platform. The team members should also give helpful advice and guidance to the newcomers through comments or other means.

The other teams are free to vote on any posts.

The only restrictions are that posts should not be plagiarized or AI generated, and images should be copyright free. Votes should not be given to people who are powering down.

We also strongly encourage teams to look beyond communities. There are many good posts that are outside of any communities - just directly on people’s personal blogs.

Teams should seek out good posts everywhere - both within communities, and outside of communities.

---

Voting on comments should also be continued.

Good comments can be as interesting and as valuable as good posts.

We want good comments that add value to a post to be encouraged and rewarded.

---

The @steemcurator accounts should only be used for voting and commenting. They should not be used for downvoting or making posts.

A comment should be left on each post voted to let the author know the post has been supported by the curation team - and please include which member of the team selected the post.

---

---

How the Curation Teams will be rewarded

Every day the teams will be allowed to allocate one full vote to a team member’s post - ideally in rotation.

Additionally each week one member should post a report for the team in the Steem POD community with a list of their top 7 posts, with a brief note of why each post was chosen.

These weekly report posts should set beneficiaries to be shared with other members of the team.

The posts will be voted by @steemcurator01.

We strongly encourage teams to ensure all members review and agree on the merits of the selected posts of the week as poor choices may influence the reward given to the weekly report by @steemcurator01.

February continues with the extended Community Curation program with eleven accounts and a total of 13M SP available to the curators.

With the return of a specific Newcomers curation account, and the growing number of app curation accounts, February will be another interesting and exciting month for community curation.

Thank you

The Steemit Team
