How to verify organizations

Step 1: Sign in through the Admin door

The admin page is for CodeKairo's admin accounts. Choose Admin on the sign-in page; an account that is not an admin is told so on the admin page and sees nothing else.

On the screen

1. Admin — you land on the admin page.
2. An admin account's email and password.

Step 2: Review the organizations waiting

Admin in the bar opens Organization verification. Waiting lists every organization that has asked to be verified, with its kind, city, owner and the owner's email, how many tournaments it has drafted, and the website it gave.

On the screen

1. How many are waiting.
2. The name — it opens the organization's page — then kind, city, owner and tournament count.
3. The website it gave.
4. Verify.

Step 3: Verify, or revoke

Verify makes the organization's tournaments publishable and its page public. If the organizer later changes its details, it comes back to Waiting with each change shown beside what you verified, and its page and tournaments stay hidden until you verify it again.

Recently verified lists the latest, each with Revoke, which makes its page and tournaments private again.

A public tournament its organizer has edited waits above, under Tournament changes: each changed setting beside what players saw, and Approve to make it public again. It cannot be approved once its start has passed; the organizer moves the dates first.

On the screen

1. The organizations verified most recently.
2. Revoke.

Step 4: What to check before verifying

Advice rather than a rule the site enforces — verification is a person's judgement, which is the point of it.

• The name is the institution's or club's real name, not a look-alike.
• The website belongs to it: the college's own domain, a club page on the college's site, a company's own domain.
• The owner's email is on that domain, where it can be.
• The drafted tournaments look like real events rather than tests.
