NEW THING: Lyrics Marked As Complete!
|
|
About a month ago, we started testing Lyric Approval tools for Editors and Moderators in the @genius-editorial-board. If you already know what lyric approval is, great! If you don’t, here are the basics…
Lyric approval is a two-fold process. Eds and Mods with approval tools review the lyrics for new releases, make any necessary changes/corrections, and then “mark” a song page as approved, indicating that its lyrics are in good shape. (Sidenote: if you’re an Ed or Mod and that sounds like your thing, head over to this thread and request the tools!) Community staffers get alerted once a page has been marked as approved so we can review it and “staff approve” it. We can also directly staff approve lyrics that haven’t been reviewed by Eds and Mods yet.
Basically, using this process, staff approved lyrics = lyrics that have been intensively reviewed to ensure that they are complete and accurate. And that’s the ultimate goal of this whole lyric approval project: to make sure Genius lyrics are
