Create a Temperature Check Guide

Temperature Check
1

In protocol governance, there are generally multiple stages to a proposal being executed. The temperature check is generally used to determine if there is an appropriate level of interest to propose upgrades to the protocol or introduce other features.

To create a Temperature Check, navigate to the appropriate category:
Temperature Check - SundaeSwap Governance.

  1. Title your temperature check with a short, clear description of your idea
  2. Description: Ask the community a general, non-biased question about a potential Protocol
    change (for example, “Should SundaeSwap add yield farming for XYZ token?”).
    Please reach out to moderators, or other community members to ensure the delivery of a
    polished temperature check before submitting it through the Forum.
  3. Voting Poll Creation: Click the cog wheel icon.
  4. Select “Build Poll”
  5. Select “Single Choice” voting.
  6. Enter two options via the “Add Option” selection. The first should be labeled as “Interested” and
    the second should be “Uninterested”
    (Additional vote options are available by selecting “Settings Wheel” followed by “Add
    More Details.” From here, the choices may be listed in greater detail (i.e., “10%,” “20%,”
    “50%,” etc.). Importantly, please maintain the “Uninterested” choice, or else a
    moderator may remove the post.)
  7. Publish the Temperature Check
  8. Reach out to other Members to build support for your improvement suggestion. By actively
    participating in the temperature check discussion, and by being willing to respond to questions
    posted, you help further develop the ideas. Please share your reasoning, and remember that
    everyone’s objective is to further the philosophy and mission of the SundaeSwap DAO; please be
    respectful.
  9. The poll may be voted on 48 hours from when it is made. If the poll gains a minimum of 20
    “Interested” votes, then proceed to Step 2. If the post fails to get sufficient support, then the
    post will remain archived for future SundaeSwap community members to learn about the
    discussion that took place and understand the reasoning behind governance decisions. Please
    feel free to resubmit a revised version of the temperature check and ensure the title reflects that
    the temperature check has been amended by denoting the Title with a ‘v2, v3, v4, etc.’

(These steps are taken from our Rules and Procedures, which were ratified by a community vote.)

Congratulations! :tada: :confetti_ball: You’ve created your temperature check! Sit back and see how it plays out, or engage with the DAO and see how you can bring your idea to life.
