Recommended rules for Curations 3
Rules lighten your workload by letting Curations automate tasks like rejecting content with profanity, assigning labels to posts, or approving content from trusted authors.
While you can create an entirely custom set of rules to fit your needs, there are some rules we recommend most Curations clients create. These rules are a great way to start automating common tasks and sending content to display.
This topic provides summaries of the content and display rules Bazaarvoice recommends for most clients. Refer to the Managing content automatically with rules and Route content to display automatically topics for detailed instructions on creating content and display rules.

The Core 9
Bazaarvoice recommends the following nine content rules, referred to as the Core 9, for organizing content from different social channels and routing it through the appropriate steps required before display, such as moderation, approval, and product tagging.

1 Reject Profanity
All accounts have an English profanity filter enabled by default. This rule is usually called “Reject Profanity”, and it includes a comprehensive list of English words that most companies find undesirable. To view the list of auto-rejected words, you can edit the rule or click on the Filters column in the Rules manager.
In addition to the default profanity list, your particular company may have additional words that you want to prevent from displaying, such as profane words in other languages, or undesirable English terms that may not necessarily be considered profane. In this case, you can auto-reject posts based on the additional profane or unwanted words by creating additional profanity rules. The rules will automatically reject all posts that contain the words you specify.

3 Brand
This rule dictates how to handle official brand content from your company’s social media accounts. To serve most client use cases, this rule auto approves posts and sends them to Bazaarvoice moderators for product tagging, but you can customize the actions to meet your business needs. The most common change made to this rule is to send posts to Bazaarvoice moderation instead of automatically approving them.

4 Direct Upload
This rule specifies how to handle content collected through the Direct Upload feature. To serve most client use cases, this rule sends posts to Bazaarvoice moderators for both moderation and product tagging, but you can customize the actions to meet your business needs. The most common change made to this rule is to manually review posts instead of sending them to Bazaarvoice moderators for approval. Posts processed by this rule automatically receive the submission-app
label and a bypassed Author Permission status.

This rule includes posts that have a photo or video and have not initiated the author permission process. To serve most client use cases, this rule sends posts to Bazaarvoice moderators for both moderation and product tagging, and specifies which persona to send author permission requests with.

Campaign Page
This display is recommended for temporary or seasonal campaign pages. To filter for the correct posts, search for terms, hashtags, or labels that relate to your campaign. For example, you might run a campaign that promotes the #gothedistance hashtag. You can include campaign-related posts in this display by using the Text filter in the Display manager to search for “#gothedistance”. Alternatively, you could create a content rule that finds posts related to your campaign and apply a gothedistance
label to them. Then, you can use the Label filter in the Display manager to include those posts in your campaign display.
