The Official Pro Curator Ring

The Professional Curator Ring

provided by TrophySmack

The Professional Curator Ring is one of the most meaningful and legendary symbols within DEEPDIIG because it represents thoughtful research, trusted curation, creativity, and elite achievement. Just like championship rings or college class rings, it serves as a tangible trophy that commemorates a major accomplishment and the hard work required to become a verified Pro Curator. The official ring size is a 12.

DeepDiig Curator Awards

The DeepDiig Curator Awards recognize Hubs that have demonstrated a commitment to organizing and sharing valuable knowledge with the community. Whether you're sharing your favorite hobbies, professional expertise, life experiences, or your organization's resources, becoming a recognized Curator is an achievement worth celebrating.

Curator Ring Exclusivity

Curator Rings are an exclusive benefit for Premium Hubs. While every Curator can earn official recognition through a Digital Badge and Wooden Plaque, Premium members receive the official DeepDiig Curator Ring as a symbol of their continued investment in preserving, organizing, and sharing knowledge with the world.

The Curator Ring is designed to recognize not only the achievement of reaching Curator status, but also a Hub's commitment to helping sustain and grow the DeepDiig community.

Why Curator Awards Matter

Curator Awards recognize the dedication, passion, and effort it takes to build a meaningful collection of knowledge. They help others identify trusted Curators while celebrating the work they've contributed to the DeepDiig community.

Every Folder you organize and every Resource you share helps preserve knowledge, experiences, and perspectives for future generations.

Whether you're documenting your favorite movies, preserving your family's history, sharing professional expertise, or helping your community discover valuable resources, your contributions make DeepDiig stronger for everyone.

Keep digging. Keep organizing. Keep sharing.

Ring Eligibility & Identity Verification

To preserve the integrity and prestige of the DeepDiig Curator Awards, each individual may receive only one Curator Ring per award level.

For example:

A Hub owner who earns the Official Curator Award (20+ Folders and 100+ Resources) will receive one Official Curator Ring, even if they own or control multiple Hubs that also meet the same requirements.

Each individual may receive only one ring for each award level. Currently, there is only one level.

To verify eligibility, every Curator Award application must include:

A valid government-issued photo ID
The applicant's legal name
The email address associated with their DeepDiig account

DeepDiig uses this information solely to verify identity and ensure that Curator Rings are awarded fairly.

Applications submitted under multiple names, duplicate accounts, or false identities in an attempt to obtain additional Curator Rings may be denied or revoked.

Note: This policy applies only to physical Curator Rings. Each qualifying Hub may still earn and display its own Digital Curator Badge and, where applicable, receive a Wooden Plaque.

How To Apply

You may also include a professional or personal title such as Dr., Mr., Mrs., Ms., Miss, NP, or similar designations. While we do not routinely verify titles or credentials, we expect all information submitted to be truthful. Providing false or misleading information may result in your application being denied, your award being revoked, or your DeepDiig account being suspended or permanently banned. If the award is being issued to a business or organization, the official business or organization name may also be included on the plaque.
