| | |
| Open Calls are WikiDeal's community proposal mechanism — inspired by the Wikimedia Foundation model of open governance. Any WikiDeal member can submit a proposal to improve any aspect of the system: a concept, an algorithm, a programme design, a governance rule, or a technical implementation. Accepted proposals are rewarded with Credits.
| |
| | |
| Open Calls embody WikiDeal's belief that the best ideas come from the community — not from the founding team alone.
| |
| | |
| === What Is an Open Call? ===
| |
| | |
| An Open Call is a structured invitation for community proposals on a specific topic. WikiDeal issues Open Calls when:
| |
| | |
| * A concept needs expert review (e.g. the [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:Bonding Curve|bonding curve]] formula, legal structures)
| |
| * A new programme or feature is being designed
| |
| * An existing mechanism needs improvement based on real-world feedback
| |
| * Community expertise is needed to validate a technical or social decision
| |
| | |
| Open Calls are also open-ended: community members can propose improvements to any concept at any time, even without a specific invitation.
| |
| | |
| === How to Submit a Proposal ===
| |
| | |
| # '''Identify the concept''' — Choose a WikiDeal concept, mechanism, or programme you want to improve. | |
| # '''Research''' — Read the existing documentation (like this page!) and understand the current design.
| |
| # '''Draft your proposal''' — Describe the problem, your proposed solution, and the expected impact. Use the standard proposal template (available in the Open Call portal).
| |
| # '''Submit''' — Submit via the Open Call portal. Your proposal receives a maturity score based on completeness and quality.
| |
| # '''Community review''' — Other members can comment, vote, and refine your proposal.
| |
| # '''Expert evaluation''' — For technical proposals (algorithms, legal, financial), WikiDeal invites domain experts to evaluate.
| |
| # '''Decision''' — The WikiDeal governance process makes a final decision. Accepted proposals are credited.
| |
| | |
| === Evaluation Criteria (Maturity Score) ===
| |
| | |
| Proposals are evaluated on a maturity score that reflects:
| |
| | |
| * '''Clarity''' — Is the problem clearly defined? Is the solution specific?
| |
| * '''Feasibility''' — Can it be implemented with WikiDeal's current or planned resources?
| |
| * '''Community benefit''' — Does it serve the broader community, not just the proposer?
| |
| * '''Compatibility''' — Does it align with WikiDeal's core principles (non-speculative, transparent, community-first)?
| |
| * '''Evidence''' — Is it supported by data, research, or real-world examples?
| |
| | |
| See the Open Calls & Maturity page for the full scoring rubric.
| |
| | |
| === Rewards for Accepted Proposals ===
| |
| | |
| Contributors whose proposals are accepted receive Credits as recognition:
| |
| | |
| * '''[[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Miles-Credits|Miles Credits]]''' — for proposals that improve community programmes or processes
| |
| * '''[[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Rewards|Rewards]]''' — for proposals that create significant platform value (larger contributions)
| |
| * '''Attribution''' — all proposals are publicly attributed, building contributor reputation
| |
| | |
| The reward level depends on the maturity score and the impact of the proposal. Expert reviewers who contribute their time are also eligible for Credits.
| |
| | |
| === Reference: Wikimedia Foundation Model ===
| |
| | |
| WikiDeal's Open Call mechanism is inspired by the Wikimedia Foundation's approach to open knowledge governance — where community members contribute not just content but also process improvements, policy proposals, and strategic decisions. Like Wikipedia's editorial community, WikiDeal's Open Call participants are co-authors of the platform itself.
