			WikiDeal aims at keeping its core concepts simple. Before adding any new incentive layer, the community would rather ask openly: would this actually help users, or just make the system harder to understand? This page frames that question for a future collective study, so that any decision emerges from transparent, participative examination rather than from a quiet design choice.

== About this call ==

WikiDeal aims at keeping its core concepts simple, so "reputation rewards" are deliberately not part of the current model. This wave 2 call is intended to study whether, and how, reputation-based rewards could complement existing tools at a later stage, notably [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Karma-Tokens|Karma tokens]] and reputation scores.


== Scope (to be refined) ==

* Whether reputation-based rewards would add value, or only add complexity.
* How they would relate to Karma tokens, reputation scores and the [[Gov/en/Portal:Trust-Safety/Reputation-Management|reputation management]] approach.
* Risks: gaming, inequality between users, confusion with monetary Rewards.


== Status ==

Part of the wave 2 calls under study. Deadline and rewards: to be defined at launch.
