Quality / Points

The vision for wis.dm has always revolved around enabling a "quality" experience - an experience that users can generally benefit from in one way or another. Wis.dm is about raising a debate, inspiring a discussion and utilizing the "crowd" to get answers on subjects that matter. As the site grows - we will continue to innovate and evolve - building tools to enable wis.dm members to benefit in multiple ways from the collective wisdom of a smart, thoughtful group of people.

There has been much discussion about the points system in recent days and about the impact of points on the quality of content. The premise behind points is quite simple: to enable "quality" to bubble up to the surface. It's early days for us and as wis.dm grows in popularity and we attract more and more users we will be constantly learning and making adjustments to all elements of our functionality - there is no doubt that this will apply to the points system. Points must reinforce our mission to "quality" - so watch out for some changes in coming days!
