JAKARTA After testing the Community Records Request feature last July, platform X is now rolling out the feature to mobile apps on Android devices and iOS. This feature will appear in the post menu section. Request Community Records is a new feature for users who are not registered as contributors. If they find misleading posts, they can call contributors to leave notes in those posts. "This gives way for people in X who are not contributors to help and notify contributors where records may be considered useful," X said via the Community Records Guideline page. To request Community Records, users only need to tap on the vertical three-point icon in the top right corner of the post. At the bottom of the Posting Report option, users will see the Community Records Request menu. This request cannot be submitted by all users. The previously called Twitter platform says that users must have verified phone numbers to request notes. The number of requests is also limited per day.

"Accounts can make up to 5 requests per day. Such restrictions can increase if demand succeeds in generating useful notes, or can be reduced if such requests exist in posts that people think don't require notes," explains X. The platform explains that the reduced number of requests will prevent spam on Community Records requests. In addition, this reduction is made so that contributors who write notes can focus on posts that do need to have records. When users submit Community Records, only contributors to the Best Writer's status will see the requests and they can select the proposed posts. The requests displayed will focus on posts less than 24 hours or posts with more than 5 requests.
