Objective: To introduce new Discord roles tailored to the global nature of the Devolved AI community, aimed at improving communication with individuals, providing better assistance, and enhancing bot detection capabilities.
Background: As the Devolved AI community continues to grow, it becomes increasingly important to adapt our communication and moderation strategies to accommodate its diverse linguistic landscape. Currently, there is a need for a more targeted approach to facilitate effective communication and support provision and to avoid unnecessary miscommunications.
Proposal Details:
Introduction of Language-Specific Roles:
Implement roles representing members' native languages to facilitate smoother communication and understanding. These roles can be auto-assigned by reacting with certain emojis in a dedicated channel. These roles will enable moderators to tailor their interactions based on language preferences, thereby enhancing assistance provision.
Purpose of Language-Specific Roles:
Improve Communication: By identifying members' native languages, moderators can communicate more effectively and ensure clarity in discussions. Enhance Support: Language-specific roles will enable moderators to better understand individual needs and provide assistance tailored to linguistic preferences. Strengthen Bot Detection: Leveraging language-specific roles can aid in detecting bots by identifying irregularities in language usage and behavior patterns from ESL. Implementation Strategy:
Collaborate with moderators and community leaders to determine the most effective way to implement language-specific roles. Provide clear guidelines and instructions for members to self-assign language roles. Benefits:
Facilitates inclusive communication among community members from diverse linguistic backgrounds. Improves efficiency and effectiveness in providing assistance and support. Strengthens community moderation efforts by enhancing bot detection capabilities. Conclusion: The proposed introduction of language-specific roles in Discord aligns with our commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment within the Devolved AI community. By acknowledging and accommodating linguistic diversity, we aim to enhance communication, support provision, and moderation efforts for the benefit of all members.
