Authorities - Waiviogit/waivio GitHub Wiki
Any Hive user may declare that he will monitor the accuracy of the entity through the claim authority procedure. Next, he votes Approve or Reject on object updates. The user can also claim ownership authority over the entity, indicating that only approved updates should be considered.
The website owner can indicate the authorities he trusts.
This mechanism can be used to add controlled lists of objects to a website, as well as to ensure that the descriptions of these objects are accurate.
For example, a manufacturer can keep track of the accuracy of their product descriptions, and websites can add all of their products to their site simply by adding the manufacturer to a trusted authority list.
The authorities list is managed in the same way as blacklist.
The authority of the votes of the site administrators is higher than the votes of the authorities. This can be useful, for example, when the website administrator can reassign the link on the Buy button to include the affiliate code of that site.
Website authorities
Any Hive user can declare that they are responsible for the accuracy of an object by claiming authority over it. They exercise their authority by approving or rejecting object updates. If full ownership authority has been claimed, then user assumes that only approved updates will be processed. The website owner can specify which authorities to trust (claims of other users will be ignored). This mechanism can be used to add controlled lists of objects to the website, while ensuring their accuracy.
