=== The spirit of these calls ===

~~''For the philosophical context and fundamental vision behind these open calls, see the [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Intention-and-Vision|Intention and Vision of the research program]].''~~

These early bird calls are structured a bit like the open calls of European research and innovation programmes, but in a softer, lighter and less administrative way. There is no consortium to build and no heavy paperwork: they are micro calls for ideas, open to anyone who brings relevant and useful ideas to the cause.

=== Open call rules and procedures in brief ===

This is a summary: the detailed rules and procedures are gathered in the [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Open-~~Calls~~:FAQ|Open Call FAQ]].

This is a summary: the detailed rules and procedures are gathered in the [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Open-Call:FAQ|Open Call FAQ]].

* '''Open Call Commissions:''' Each call is managed by a dedicated commission composed of a Chair, a Facilitator, and a group of Evaluators (usually 3 to 5 people). They evaluate proposals, justify decisions (seeking consensus), and conduct a follow-up one year later to distribute the second half of the funds based on the idea's actual implementation. See the [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Open-Calls:Commissions|Open Call Commissions]] page for details on their composition and roles.

* The Ynternet.org Foundation and the WikiDeal founder ([[Gov/en/Portal:Meta/Credits|see credits]]) are committed to making the announced sums available '''only if the proposed added values are judged good'''. If no contribution is judged good enough, the money is never kept: it is intended to be reinvested in another open call.

* Attribution is intended to happen progressively, as good contributions arrive, with explanations for each attribution.

== What Can Be Proposed ==

Open Call proposals fall into two categories. '''Improvement proposals''' take the current Prototype 1 model as a given and propose enhancements: a better formula for distributing [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Rewards|Rewards]] (no guarantee*), a new mechanism for onboarding [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:User Groups|User Groups]], an improved arbitration process. '''Substitution proposals''' challenge one or more elements of Prototype 1 and propose replacements: an alternative [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:Bonding Curve|bonding curve]] formula, a different governance structure, a new approach to Commission calculation. Proposals that entirely abandon the WikiDeal model are out of scope; the Open ~~Calls are~~ about improving and diversifying, not about starting over.

Proposals that entirely abandon the WikiDeal model are out of scope; the Open Call is about improving and diversifying, not about starting over.

A valid proposal must specify: the exact change proposed; the costs of implementing it; the expected benefits and the evidence base for those expectations; compatibility with the membership-based entry system (memberships must remain in all proposals); the proposer's own capacity to contribute to implementation; and the full AI transparency disclosure if any AI tools were used. Proposals lacking these elements are returned for completion before formal evaluation.

Line 159:

Each periodic evaluation combines a public vote (accessible to all WikiDeal membership holders) with a structured expert panel review. The expert panel includes platform cooperative specialists, legal scholars, economists familiar with commons governance, and at least one representative from the Living Labs research community. The panel's role is not to override the public vote but to ensure that winning proposals are technically feasible and legally compliant.

Rewards can combine several complementary forms: direct cash payments, [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Rewards|Rewards]] (no guarantee*), which represent a conditional claim on future subscription revenue, and [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Karma-Tokens|Karma tokens]], which can be exchanged for services within the WikiDeal ecosystem. See [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Rewards|Rewards]] for the full picture. Winning proposals in an evaluation cycle are intended to share a prize pool of '''CHF 10,000 in cash''' and '''1,000,000 WikiDeal memberships'''. There may be multiple winners in a cycle, a main prize and a complementary prize, to recognise proposals that work well together. The Open ~~Calls are~~ designed to remain genuinely community-driven, with evaluation guided by public vote and independent expert review.
