This is not your regular post exhibition, there's more to it as it comes with special packages. We got new curators to select posts with the wls-africa tag that's worthy of the community curation. They came up with 14 posts and reviewed them accordingly. We believe this approach can curb the problem of not getting curated by the community account. Here are the posts with the curators' reviews. Please do read carefully through the reviews, so that you can align yourself with the standard placed. And if your post is featured here, congratulations! Keep up the good work!!!!


This post is for people who want to be relevant in business in 2019, it talks about emerging marketing trends they should look out for.


Payout is currently below 50 wls
The poetry piece is well arranged and it follows a sequence of five lines in each stanza. (A quintet)
There was this constant suspense, as it was a narrative poem.
It leaves me with the need to give it a second read, not because I didn't understand from the first, but because I actually enjoyed reading it again.
A poetry piece should either leave you with more questions, a specific answer, and this piece did just that.


The payout is currently below 50 wls
The post has a great essay structure, an intro, a body and a conclusion.
The post had a conclusion that correlate with the body and the whole post in general, for me this is one way to know that the post was at least 50% original.
It was a short post, with less than 300 words, by the looks of it, but it was able to convey the message that the title carried.
The post's first tag was life and it addressed a issue that's common to our daily lives.


This is a science post which talks about heavy metal and it's effect on the environment.
The post is also an example of writing a thesis.
The writer sourced the post.


An undervalued post, life as first tag. Image aligns with the topic. An interesting read and straight to the point. It has the intro, pointers and conclusion. Can one learn from this article? Absolutely yes!


wls-science as first tag.
This is a loaded post everyone needs to read. If you've ever taken paracetamol or other analgesics or even drugs in general, you should read this.
It breaks down types of painkillers and even outlined some natural alternatives. We deal with pain everyday, so, before you pop that pill, find out the consequences.


This post simply talks about the importance of blockchain technology in our financial institutions. It talks about how the introduction of blockchain technology will help facilitate a very secure and anonymous transactions among traders or investors since there is no third party included in the transaction process.


wls-africa tag fourth
This post talks about love, using waves as a metaphor for feelings and how we are sometimes caught unawares by these feelings and sometimes they are so strong when they come crashing that it leaves us broken.


I chose sport and stories, but I couldn't find a good sport post.
Here is a story worth curating.
She revealed how a family had spent their Christmas holidays.
Her writing style, especially the end part. I was just skipping through thinking it's a regular Christmas story until I got to a part where a girl was told not to swallow an orange seeds cos if she does, it will grow in her stomach. 😁 This made me read everything. It's a nice story.


This is in the "life" niche and I liked it because it is a highly philosophical post about the contradictions of life. The writer obviously had some frustrating questions he chose to air. If I was actively curating, I would have advised him to work on his grammar and sentence structure a little more.


This post belongs in the "psychology" niche and I liked it because it was short and precise and served as a necessary reminder about why it is deadly to procrastinate.


This post gives us insight on how to give maximum protection to our teeth from getting infected with diseases. Although image not sourced, the author should take note and make correction.


A very beautiful comparative analysis between eos and ethereum. Talking about the cryptocurrency world. I Iove crypto, health and financial post because I can imagine the positive impact on the readers😁

First, going with the mindset that I was to curate for Christian articles, the topic caught my attention.
Overcoming depression ... healthy diet
I later saw that it's a good post, so I'll dive into this niche too. He talked about tips on how to steer clear of things that acts as catalyst to depression ranging from attitude to decision making and its likes.

Other points put into consideration:

  1. Word Count: About 400
  2. Free images used, Pixabay
    Labeled for reuse, creative commons, public licensed
  3. Images properly sourced
  4. Markdown styling to garnish the post
  5. Tags intact
  6. With plagiarism checker, 85.7% original which is above the 60% yardstick
  7. A proper reference for the article
  8. 2 days post, yet 14.34 Wls earned on the content
  9. It's relatable
  10. Properly scripted with proper grammar.

So this is just a test run on how to get more posts curated with the wls-africa tag. You'll notice that the featured posts come with the basis on why it was selected while some just reviews. What curators are looking for in a post would be made known when we reach a consensus. Do well to upshare, comment and encourage the authors. Keep using the wls-africa tag, you'll get featured too.

A feedback would be appreciated, in order for us to serve you better.
