Adding More Support for International Posts
Curie was the first curation project that helped support great posts in some international and non-English areas, including Korean and Spanish, which have become large segments on Steemit. Today, there are many growing communities in international growth areas, some of them posting in languages other than English. To recognize and support good content in these areas, Curie will allocate a portion of its votes again on some regional posts (in English and in other languages). In each of these areas, we will rely on trained curators who have posted appropriate guidelines for their communities, have a trusted system in place, and will be supervised by Tom 
Italian curators: 
Brazilian curators: 
Nigerian curators: 
Malaysian curators: 
This curation will be independent of Curie's general curation works, which will continue as usual with no changes.
Curator Recommendations
With public submissions by new curators now closed, we have a new system for onboarding new curators. Top curators will now be able to mentor and recommend new curators. If the new curators performs well, the recommendor will receive a Recommendation Fee. Some guidelines for this program -
- Only curators with CS >5 and AR >85 (i.e. the top tier) will be able to recommend new curators.
- If the new curator can maintain a CS => 1 for 4 weeks, the recommender will receive a 100 Steem reward for each curator recommended.
- If the new curator can become a top curator, maintaining CS >5 and AR >85 for 4 weeks, the recommender will receive a 500 Steem recommendation fee.
- Poor recommendations will lead to disqualification for the recommender. If even one new curator fails to maintain CS => 0.25 within the first 4 weeks, the recommender will not be able to recommend new curators.
- There's a limit of 3 new curator recommendations per week, all of whom will start off with 2 submissions per week.
- The new curator recommended must be a bonafide and engaged member of the Steem community. (I.e. no sockpuppets etc.)
- Top curators may develop their own process for selection and mentoring, and can use #curie to solicit applications for curators. Once you'd like to recommend someone please post in #curie.
We hope this will allow Curie to continue offering a voice to promising new curators, as well offer current top curators incentive to mentor new curators.
Weekly Statistics
Over the last week, Curie curated a total of 183 posts at an average of 26 posts per day. This is increase from last week, but at the very limits of our operational and voting power capacity. Going forward, we expect many more smaller votes for the international project, while general curation should stabilize around 150 posts per week.
Authors
The top authors recommended by our curators this week are:-
Once again, a completely fresh list of promising authors, with no repeats from previous weeks!
Curators
The Top Curators list will dynamically change every other week depending on performance. Anybody will be able to rise up the ranks with consistent, quality curation. Inconsistent, low-quality curation will result in dropping out of Top curators list(or regular curation, if under-performance continues).
This week, we have upvoted 180 posts submitted by curators in http://curiesteem.com, with 1,800 STEEM to be paid out to curators.
