Pros
Cons
Here is the description for the HIT:"Find a website (use google, bing, etc.) that contains english content that belongs to the following category:
"Category: Politics
"Description: political news
Copy the URL of the website into the URL field.
"Copy the text from that website (without ads, or other non-content) into the content field and click submit.
"The text must be in english language, and at least 5 sentences long (longer = better)."
Well, seems easy enough, right? I did 2 of them, both were rejected for not having "at least 4 sentences".
The trouble is I copy/pasted websites like Politico, because when I searched for "English politics" that's what came up. And you know what was listed? A bunch of headlines. So I copy/pasted a dozen headlines from the front page along with the authors and date they were posted and pasted that in the box for the content field.
Apparently that doesn't count, because they aren't sentences. But that means this HIT is impossible to complete to their liking, because when you search for something like that, the majority of results are going to be headlines from the front page, unless you're looking for a specific story or article. And given that you have a very short timer to do this (about 9 minutes), and the pay is only 14 cents, you don't have a lot of incentive to really dig deep and find the perfect article to copy paste entire paragraphs of into the field.
Advice to Requester
If you want something specific found, you need to be clear about that. If headlines and author information don't count as a full sentence to you, then you need to specify you want paragraphs from full articles.Also, a longer timer and would be extremely helpful. How can you expect quality work if you're rushing your workers and underpaying them?
