WagMedia - Collective Content Creation for 26 Weeks
WM has a proven track record of being the answer to the problems that have been stated. WM has successfully incentivized a diverse group of independent creators to produce content that add value to the Polkadot ecosystem by holding the funds approved by OpenGov in escrow and distributing them “retroactively” to creators based on the quality of content. Quality is addressed by direct feedback on style, accuracy of information, and direction on trends. Those who continually respond to feedback enjoy better rewards, exposure, and reach with their content. Additionally, the writer’s room allows for peer review, with fellow creators receiving minor rewards for providing feedback or making edits to drafts. In terms of inclusion, WM is open to all, this includes smaller creators, those new to the ecosystem, natives who want to get involved, aspiring creators, or even those who have limited time. Contributors will not need to raise their own OpenGov proposal. WM has supported 18+ non-Anglo languages, including German, French, Spanish, Chinese, Romanian, Portuguese, Japanese, Greek, Hindi, Italian, Turkish, Russian, Polish, Czech, Filipino, Thai, Mongolian, and Vietnamese. The tiering system along with every piece of content posted being appraised will allow for fair compensation being rewarded. Contributors can work their way from a tier 3 creator to the converted role of a tier 1 creator. Each tier increases the percentage awarded, thus, incentivizing creators to up their game. Coverage of the ecosystem updates is done by individual creators, each with their own unique perspective and voice. This variety helps to successfully capture the attention of ever-growing audiences, as well as alleviates centralized narratives. WM allows those without support or direction find their unique voice and eventually become confident, independent creators able to support themselves or appeal directly to the token holders through OpenGov for their own proposals.
Current Progress and Comments:
Wagmedia on this marketing and outreach iteration, is seeking to expand beyond the english sphere to an even wider market, thus attracting and actively hunting talent to join the media efforts of Polkadot.
