In September, we began requiring that new contributors unlock the ability to write notes by first making valuable ratings. This increased average note quality so much that, today, we are retroactively requiring that all contributors meet these criteria in order to write notes.
Contributors spend time and energy rating notes. Today’s change means the typical note that contributors see and rate will be of substantially higher quality, making better use of all that time and energy.
How will this work? If you were admitted to Community Notes before September and you’ve earned a Rating Impact score of 5+, or a Writing Impact score of 1+, you’ve unlocked writing ability — thank you for the great contributions! 🙌
@CommunityNotes Writing helpful notes should be compensated
@CommunityNotes How do we see our impact score? Also, I almost am never shown any notes to rate.
@CommunityNotes Twitter is getting better every single day, waiting for more updates 😏
