The Five Stars

In our fedwiki we use a five star plugin github , which allows us to assess the quality and coherence of an idea, project, initiative or policy according to our framework. It also permits to do so according to each dimension of the 4 layers of our framework fedwiki .

# Meaning

For the moment, the Five Star Plugin doesn't allow for "zero" stars, which would mean: no choice has been made (yet). In this case you won't find any stars, not even grey ones. The following explains what we mean when we give 1 - 5 stars.

1

There are elements of what we are looking for here and there. But elements of the commons and commoning are basically anywhere. So, nothing really interesting.

2

There is a visible effort to strive for commons and commoning. So far not exciting from a commoner's perspective, but a good start.

3

Hey, that's pretty remarkable: a visible effort to strive for more commons and commoning along with some strong conceptual aspects and traits of a conscious process design towards that goal.

3

Wow, that's exciting. It looks pretty much like a great commons and a great commoning process.

Hurray, Commons and Commoning! Sound, consciously designed, generative and well performing. Imperfect of course, as any social process.
