After making my last update on my progress for the Utopian Help Center project, I noticed that my post which was pending review, showed up on my home page. In my last update, I had written about how to find your pending posts and now that method is no longer needed. Utopian has been updated to address that issue, now a user can find his/her posts that are pending review straight from the home page.
I also made edits to the last section that explains how much a post earns.
Pull request: Improve wording on last two sections
So the updated text reads as follows:
Responding to moderator requests
Your new post will be listed on your home page, under Contributions. Check if there are any new replies to your post. Moderators write a comment on your post with instructions on how to correct your submission.
To edit your post, click the ... menu button near the post title, and select Edit post.
You'll be taken back to the editor where you can make the necessary changes. Once you're done editing, scroll to the bottom and click Update post.
Your post will be reviewed again and when it has been accepted, a moderator will leave a comment saying so, as seen in the screenshot below:
Your accepted contribution
Once your contribution is accepted, it will be visible to the Utopian community and eligible for being upvoted by the Utopian bot. It will be published on the Steem blockchain and will forever be available on the blockchain.
How much will it make?
Every post that is approved by Utopian moderators has the chance to be rewarded by the Utopian voting bot. It uses algorithms to calculate the rewards that are given to each new contribution in relation to other contributions. Utopian has over 3 million Steem Power allocated to rewarding contributors and every contribution gets a share. Other opportunities to earn exist. Members of the community can also upvote your content and project owners can send you STEEM as rewards.
How much a post earns depends on many variables, which include the category it falls under and the quality of the content. Ultimately, how much your contribution makes is determined mostly by the quality of your work, how it is received by the community and other agreements you may have with project owners.
I also worked on the Project Owners Quick Start Guide and added more content to it:

Your projects
To make your way to the Projects page from elsewhere on Utopian, click the Projects tab on the navigation menu. The Projects page will open, listing all the projects/repositories you currently have on GitHub.
Clicking an individual project will take you to that particular project's page, where you'll find all the project's activities, which include task requests you've made and contributions submitted. You will also have the option to create a new task request for the project.
Creating a task request
A task request is an announcement you make detailing what your project needs and how contributors can help you get it done.
To create a new task request, click "Add task request" near the name of the project you're viewing, at the top of the page.
Note: You must be on your project's page, as described above, to see the option to add a task request for it. You can also click the blue icon beside your project's name, in the "GitHub Connection" section, on the right side of the page.
Next, you will be asked what you want contributors to do for your project. You can create task requests addressed to contributors specialized in many different areas, as seen in the image below.
Choose the one most appropriate for your task request and read the rules so that your task request will be accepted by the moderators.
Once you have read the rules and understood them, click I understand. Proceed.
