rubric

Consistency of evaluation:.

The rubric allows moderators to evaluate comments based on consistent criteria.

The quality of moderation can be maintained by having multiple moderators use the same criteria for evaluation.

Clarification of expectations for participants:.

By making the rubric available to participants, it is possible to clearly indicate what comments are desirable and what comments are excluded.

Because participants do not receive direct feedback on whether their comments were approved or rejected by moderation, it is important to clarify expectations through the rubric.

Moderation efficiency:.

A clear rubric would allow moderators to evaluate comments quickly and accurately.

Judgment based on a rubric allows for efficient moderation without being influenced by the subjectivity of the moderator.

When creating a rubric in Polis, you may want to consider the following

Establish criteria for excluding spam and irrelevant comments.

Clarify how to handle duplicate comments.

Decide how to handle comments containing multiple ideas.

Establish criteria for comments that are consistent with the purpose of the conversation.

Implementing a rubric can help make Polis conversations more constructive and productive. It is important that there are clear guidelines for both participants and moderators.
