Abstract
A method of providing a level of certification of an attribute of an item is disclosed. A requirement is determined for a level of certification for an attribute of an item. A notification is provided of an evidence item that is to be submitted to evaluate the level of certification of the attribute of the item. The evidence item is received. The level of certification of the attribute of the item is determined based on the received evidence item.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- one or more computer processors;
- one or more computer memories;
- one or more modules incorporated into the one or more computer memories via a computer-implemented deployment process, the one or more modules configuring the one or more computer processors of a network-based publication system to perform operations for automatically enhancing a user interface for displaying a listing of an item posted on the network-based publication system with a visual representation of a level of a certification of the item, the operations including:
- providing a notification of an evidence item that is to be electronically submitted to evaluate the level of certification for the item, the evidence item being a data item that is to be stored in a database of the network-based publication system;
- receiving the electronic submission of the evidence item;
- generating a user interface for prompting a subset of a community to provide opinions with respect to the evidence item;
- determining that the requirement for the level of certification for the item is satisfied based on a consensus of the opinions of the subset with respect to the data item indicating that the evidence item is sufficient for providing the level of certification;
- and
- generating the visual representation of the level of certification of the item for associating with a presentation of the listing on a client device.
