Dear Whaleshares Community, meet contests and other initiatives currently officially sponsored by DBREAD. Let’s say thank you to their organisers, to their energy, creativity and courage which made these awesome projects possible!
1. Altruistic
Altruistic Authors Corner by @altruistic is a curation project. We focus on original posts that are undervalued on the platform. This curation work has been going on for weeks now. We hope to support more authors whose original publication is undervalued. You can get the latest author corner here. We always have a report about those we featured weekly — you can find the latest one here.
2. Artist
Artist by @PoeticSnake & @TheBugIQ is a warm, inviting and supportive community where artists of all styles can find a home to interact and support one another. Our mission is to support individual creativity and to encourage the realisation of real world results including recognition and monetization. It is our absolute belief that artists and all art forms are a vital part of what makes life beautiful. You can read all about our plans for the future here. Drop in and say hello on the You Got Snekked Discord!
3. Aquarium
Aquarium is a curation-based project founded by @Jglake. The @Aquarium account will provide regular spotlight posts which will represent and highlight the members of the Whaleshares community who have been going above and beyond to provide valuable content. The posts will contain a short biography about each featured user, providing an insight into the creator's mind. @Aquarium will act as a stopping post for many members of the platform. This will allow passing members to find others who write about the topics they love. The Aquarium team will give undervalued users the recognition they deserve by providing the "springboard" for their success on the Whaleshares platform.
4. Bookworm
Bookworm Initiative by @kaizen is essentially created to promote the habit of reading. Our vision is to "Ignite the Learners in each of us through Reading". This not just a typical reading challenge though, we also aimed to provide meaningful discussion across the Whaleshares platform and even on Discord. Our goal is to go beyond reading and highly encourage the bookworms to go all out and share their lessons learned and takeaways from various reading materials. So far, we have introduced the LightReads and GoodReads Challenge, and currently working on the Daily Grind. For more details about our programs, please visit our introductory post here. You can also catch up with our fellow bookworms through our Discord Server.
5. Daily Food
The #dailyfoodphotography by @jznsamuel is an initiative to discover delicious food from around the world, where participants can share the meals that they consume daily with others here on whaleshares and in the process also earn some awesome rewards. The #dailyfoodphotography strives to nurture healthy competition, spark delicious conversations and encourage people to eat healthy. The contest also aims to support new members on the whaleshares platform and provides them an opportunity to engage and interact with the community. Anyone is free to use the #dailyfoodphotography tag to share original photos of the different kind of food and meals that they eat!
6. FlamingHelpers
FlamingHelpers Community by @flaminghelpers is where we write, curate and support all Christian writers with different type of shows ranging from Curation Show, Bible Quiz Show, Air Your View Show, Sing it Loud Show and Fan of the Week Review Show coupled with Flaming Helpers Weekly Challenge and FlamingHelpers Author Corner where we share the original best, good format post that are under our tags. You can get the latest Curation Work here. The Bible Quiz Show is here. The Latest Air Your View Post here. The Air Your View here. The Flaming Helpers Weekly Challenge here.
7. Laureate Flashblast
The Laureate Flashblast by @nikflossus is a writing, critiquing and training drill for those aspiring to write at a professional level. Each day prompts will be posted and writers will produce a very short piece of writing against a time limit. This is to be done without overthinking or editing. This imposes habit, forces improvement, removes fear or anxiety and allows an improving writer to learn a lot about their craft. Writers also critique work harshly, learning from each other's mistakes too. No egos allowed!
8. Phoenix
The Phoenix Project by @mandelsage is a curation project. Just as the legendary Phoenix, when in her last few moments of life, is finally reborn from her ashes, so does The Phoenix Project give "renewed life" to undervalued, unappreciated posts (with rewards under 50WLS) that are 13-days-old. The main idea behind this kind of curation is to provide that little bit of encouragement to content creators by boosting their posts just before payout, so that they will not lose hope and abandon the platform. Currently reaching 60 Whalesharians every week. For any questions, feel free to contact Mandelsage on discord (Mandelsage#6703).
9. Promote that Post
Promote That Post is a curation initiative hosted by @dklef where we have a medium for everyone to publicize undervalued articles made by great authors of Whaleshares. The mission of this project is to adequately reward quality articles and improve the visibility of undervalued content on Whaleshares. Feel free to join the nomination stage and promote that article you really thought was great but lacking in visibility. There's also a voting stage where users get to decide the best articles that are fit for better rewards and upshare. Check it out here!
10. Spoken Word Show
Discord Spoken Word by @wolfgang-alpha is a creative and highly relaxing show where users from all over, come together to listen in or share their thoughts through the art of spoken word. It is a unique show, not only because it provides an avenue for people to listen in and appreciate creativity, while simultaneously rewarding the creatives who share their work of art via the voice and text channel. But also because it is a contest which keeps those sharing their entries on their toes as the topic for every show is released 10hrs to the show and changes weekly. The show holds every Sunday by 6pm gmt. You can find out more information about it Here or drop by our Tag #dsw.
11. Writer's Space
Writer's Space by @vit is a community of blockchain writers and poets with two channels on Whaleshares Discord server. You're welcome to post in writer-space, the curation channel, links to your quality original literary work in English or Spanish and selected ones will be massively rewarded. All formats and genres are welcome, from poetry to fiction to comedy. There’s also writer-talk, a chat channel to socialize. Every Saturday @vit posts a curation digest with posts selected by community members, Creative Week Awards and other announcements.
Some other awesome projects are in preparation stage, follow this space and you’ll meet them soon!
