# Dotreasury support grading now!

You may know [dotreasury](https://www.dotreasury.com/) as a explorer or dashboard for Kusama|Polkadot treasury. Actually it's more than that, aiming to introduce retrospect mechanism for current treasury. Please check the [post 352](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/post/352) for the original discussions. In general we have following opinions:
- ROI should be measured for treasury expense.
- Every community members should have ways to evaluate treasury expense, while the evaluation should be well saved and verified.
- It's better to create a transparent and fair way to measure most participants' credit which will help the treasury and even the whole ecosystem long running.

We raised a [discussion](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/post/598) about how to build the credit score and received some very good suggestions. But we prefer to let the grade behavior happen before a maybe biased score, so we implemented grading first with the part fund of [proposal #103](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/treasury/103).

## Ecosystem fit
Again please check [here](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/post/352) for the original ideas. It will help the whole ecosystem by following means.
- Provide a way for anyone(councilor, external reviewer, community member)'s feedback to be stored permanently and easily verified.
- Some post-evaluation mechanism will give a supervision to beneficiaries for better delivery.
- Previous verified evaluation will bring some reference to new enrolled councilors, cost for new evaluation will be reduced.
- Councilors approve or reject proposals, it provide a way for community members to give their judgement for proposals(even before council motion).
- It will become easier for anyone to see what kinds of proposal, and what work is welcomed and get high evaluation.

## How to grade
Currently we support grade treasury **proposals** and **projects**. So for Kusama，
1. Open [proposals page](https://www.dotreasury.com/ksm/proposals) or [projects page](https://www.dotreasury.com/ksm/projects).
2. Choose a proposal or project and open the detail page, and you'll see the grading panel.
3. Evalulate the proposal or project, and click the stars next to the 'Your grading' text.
4. Leave some reason for your grade if you want to.
5. Click the 'Sign' button, then it will raise the polkadot extension and require your sign.
6. Your signed msg will be stored to IPFS and listed bellow. [Sample for project](https://ipfs-hk.decoo.io/ipfs/QmUk3wTGTGDXxeJzYVha6vQJQWePU7oUgi8vdLaPQGv2Rf?filename=grade-1632381078856.json), [Sample for proposal](https://ipfs-hk.decoo.io/ipfs/QmQudHKeULe6NSToiBsn4QezR99wnTZefeFaUACNnhYFSh?filename=grade-1632385092573.json).

Note:
- No account registraction required, just a Kusama|Polkadot account.
- Your 2nd grading will override the 1st one.
- Currently we didn't implement methods for canceling grading.
- We suggest to grade the project if there are several proposals funded for one project. Of course you can still grade one of the proposals for the partial work.

## Call for candidates

Maybe it's always sensitive to evaluate others, but OpenSquare will be very glad to be the 1st candidate. 

Check our funded projects:

- [dotreasury](https://www.dotreasury.com/ksm/projects/dotreasury)

We will be appreciated for any grading to OpenSquare, and don't worry, we will not complain that :).If any beneficiaries want to be the candidates, maybe just leave your project or proposals as comments.

## Worries or FAQs

- Engagement
Yes, we worry a little about it. It's always not easy without token incentive. We hope councilors give grades at your ease.

- Future score
Maybe start from some simple and easy method as experiment, but let's foucus on this first. It's meaningless to calculate score with very few opinions.

- Bounties or tips
Currently we didn't implement them because bounty is so less and tip is usually small, but we can add them if there are expected.
