Curation Report Week #03 by Team 5 – June 2024

Hello there, Steemit team and my valuable readers.

This is your curator from Team 5 and account SC07, writing this report (for the third week of June) for the very first time.

It was a very enriching yet time-consuming experience, and definitely out of my comfort zone. However, I wanted to do this to gain a better understanding of the platform. Today was my seventh time curating, and I can now say that the first time was the most difficult. It became a little easier with each curation but remains time taking! So, for anyone thinking about applying, please keep in mind that you need to give it your time and dedication. Even if you consider it a hobby, your efforts should be sincere!

Before getting into the details of statistics and numbers, I want to share my impression of curation. thediarygame is definitely the most used tag. However, I looked for unique elements while curating diary games and grouped them under categories like life, food, reflections, and such different criteria.

One more thing that gave me a real moral dilemma was the burnsteem25 tag. What should I do when curating such authors? The post is good, but content should (always) take precedence. And then I want to motivate these authors too. It's such a dilemma when I want to curate with a smaller percentage to cater to a larger number of such authors. My inner voice says, "No, please, a slightly bigger percentage." The author will just get peanuts, especially if I am the only one sometimes supporting that particular author.

However, I am pleased to report that we added some 27 (plus/minus 2) authors to our database this week only. Moreover 2 new communities have been added so far. Knackforbuzz is definitely buzzing with talent and creativity and I curated some very good posts there.

Let me remind you again, our team is supporting posts using the @steemcurator07 account. If you want to know what rules we follow in our work, read the Curation Guidelines for June 2024.

The authoress @vwrites from club5050 has crafted an exceptional story, weaving tension, character development, and vivid atmospheres that fully immerse the reader. The nuanced portrayal of Selina Kyle, balancing her protective and fearless nature, adds depth to her character.

Her intricate plot and detailed heist planning promise thrilling developments, making this a compelling chapter.

Так і живемо...

I was moved by the story, by @zaria56, of a boy who was taken from an orphanage. He needs help in his studies, because he probably did not have the proper conditions for the educational process. I hope things will improve for this poor boy now.
Zaria56 is a talented author who always writes from the heart and regularly shares her poems with us. Each of her posts deserves special attention.

Is the Doctor right or do you know better than them?

This post by @huzaifanaveed1 - a dentist by profession from club5050 is a recount of two patient cases, involving a complicated wisdom tooth extraction after initial resistance to the recommendation, and another with a bride-to-be demanding urgent dental repairs but reacting negatively during treatment. The article highlights the challenges doctors face, emphasizing the need for trust and understanding between patients and healthcare providers.
