Hello. Is there already a list of the top10 finalists for the Wattpad Project Portal Contest? I hope you release the list in public. I'm reading a lot of comments saying this and that entries are AI art. I even saw an entry included in your Reading List that was made by a team/comic studio. As per FAQ posted, an entry cannot be a collaborative work. Hopefully, there were no AI entries included in the finalists and entries that violated the rules were excluded from consideration.

@yelwxyz - I guess we'll just have to trust the folks at HQ and see what happens when the results come out...

@TheOrangutan i understand what you're saying. but having obvious ai entries shortlisted/included in the reading list is worrying coz it meant the screening wasn't thorough. And regarding the "studio" concern, what if it was explicitly stated in the comic entry itself, for example, "story adapted by *this person*" and "art by *that person*", is this still not considered a collaboration? coz if they were the same person, the use of using different pen names for crediting oneself seems impractical.

@yelwxyz - any announcements about the PPC will happen via the profile the contest is running on I'd imagine. For the entries, what people are saying and what is actually the truth of the situation is not always 100% aligned. As for any 'studios', just because someone calls themselves a studio, doesn't necessarily mean they're a company or even a collaboration. Wattpad usernames are names, not necessarily reality. For example, you're not actually talking to an Orangutan...

Hi
          
          How are you Mr. Ghaf?
          
          I have two questions
          the first: Are stories that describe crimes in detail, including beheadings, dismembered limbs and entrails, as well as stories of human organ trafficking and other prohibited content?
          
          Second: Those who write stories and texts about self-harm, do you consider their stories or books to encourage self-harm?

TheOrangutan

@Muran1M - Hi, without actually being able to see the stories in question it's a little difficult to advise but ultimately if you're writing about anything that's specifically mentioned in the Content Guidelines like violence or self harm and doing it in detail then you're starting to rub up against what might be considered banned. Have a look at the Content Guidelines on the Help pages, they're your best guide. Cheers, Gavin

Wattpad ve Wattpad beta arasında ne fark var öğrenebilir miyim?

TheOrangutan

@sonunakadarbtskz -  Wattpad'in teknik tarafıyla ilgilenmediğim için bunun cevabını bilmiyorum. Ancak sorun yaşıyorsanız, yapabileceğiniz en iyi şey Yardım sayfaları aracılığıyla Destek ekibine bir Yardım isteği göndermektir.

@TheOrangutan   ama Wattpadden farklı olarak  beta kullandığımda panoma yazılan mesajları bazen göremiyorum, bunun bildirimi bana ulaşıyor lakin cevaplayamıyorum. Sorun bende olabilir mi acaba?

Hi Gavin, How are you? I want to ask you something? When will Wattpad be avaible in Turkey? Is there any development? Most users login via VPN and this way it is incredibly difficult 

aarcobaleno

@TheOrangutan ok, thanks for your answer (:

@aarcobaleno - Hi, I have no new information for you. All the information available is on our Help pages or via Wattpad's social media channels. When there is news, the social media channels will provide an update. At the moment Wattpad are following the legal process dictated by the Turkish government.

Hi Gavin,
          
          How are you? Long time no see. 
          
          Could you please tell me by when can I expect a message from you for the selection of the upcoming “Wattpad Ambassadors Program”? Filled the form from my end a month prior, I guess. 
          
          Thanks for always being so supportive!
          
          Have a wonderful day!!! 
          
          :-)

@ILoveMoschino - as I've already noted "Each term we'll be looking for different skillsets depending on what the community needs." In general we're looking for good, constructive, dedicated members of the community. But, for example, if I tell you that we're looking for people this time around who have some editing knowledge, may know Korean, and are based in the Philippines, then that will be true this time, not next time. 
            
            So, people should apply and let us know who they are. If they suit the role we're looking for then we'll ask 'em in. This is the same as any other volunteer role anywhere on the planet: we give a loose idea of what we're looking for, people fill in a submission, and we pick out those who suit the needs of this term.

@TheOrangutan That’s why I’m asking what are you looking for in an Ambassador, so that I can see if I have what it needs to bring to the table. And in case I don’t, maybe I’ll hone my skills.

@ILoveMoschino - I don't think you should be embarrassed or sad. I'm impressed with your perseverance. But, at the end of the day, I have to take people into the team based on what we need at the time, not how many times they've applied.
