Critic Requirements

Critic Rating

The Critic Rating shows the percentage of verified journalists who have given an article a positive review. At the moment, the Critic Category is made up of journalist reviewers that the Credder team hand-verified based on the requirements listed further below. In the future, the Critic Category will be comprised of journalists that the Credder community trusts most, giving the Leaderboard’s Top Authors the ability to review as Critics.
