-# Community Platform guidelines
+# Profile and Map Pin Guidelines
+Hey plastic recycling friend 👋
 
-This pdf goes here
+First of all, welcome and cool that you found your way here (again)! 
+This platform is made for you and everyone else in our global community to learn, share and connect to each other. We want to make sure that every pin on the map is really useful and fun to discover. 
+So please take a minute to read our guidelines.

+## First things first... What's the difference between Profile and Map Pin?
+
+The **profile** refers to the information and details about you. 
+If you're a business owner, it should refer to your workspace or project, showcasing your work, products, and activities.
+It serves as a comprehensive overview of your recycling work, including multiple images, descriptions, and links to social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and Precious Plastic Bazar, so make sure to complete it as much as possible.
+
+On the other hand, a **map pin** represents the physical location of the workspace or project on the map. It allows users to visually see where different Precious Plastic spaces are located geographically. 
+That's why on the map pin your information must be assertive: you just need a good short description and the correct location of your workspace.
+
+Map pins are only available to Workspaces, Collection Points, Community Points and Machine Builders. If you're a Member you can add a map pin once you start your recycling activities. Meanwhile, head to the Academy to start learning!
+
+Note: your Map Pin will be submitted for approval before going live on the Map, so make sure to fill the information correctly :)
+
+
+## Guidelines
+
+### What's your focus?
+
+You can choose between different focus options. This might help you choosing:
+|  |   |
+| --- | --- |
+| <img src="../assets/universe/badge-member.png" width="60"/> | **Member:** You are keen on learning and sharing about Precious Plastic.   |
+| <img src="../assets/universe/badge-collection-point.png" width="60"/> | **Collection Point:** You collect plastic waste on a regular basis. |
+| <img src="../assets/universe/badge-machine-shop.png" width="60"/> | **Machine Shop:** You build or help build Precious Plastic machines. |
+| <img src="../assets/universe/badge-workspace.png" width="60"/> | **Workspace:** You run a recycling workspace with Precious Plastic machines. |
+| <img src="../assets/universe/badge-community-point.png" width="60"/> | **Community Point:** You are a contact point with an overview of the recycling network in your local area. |
+
+### Member
+
+Are you keen on learning and sharing about Precious Plastic? Coool. 
+This is an easy one :) 
+
+#### Photo
+
+Generally you can add a photo of your choice, but we would recommend taking a photo which shows your involvement in any activities related to plastic, if you can. 
+Could be a photo of a cleanup you’ve been to, could be some plastic crafts and recycling experiments you made or an exhibition or zero-waste market you attended or supported. 
+
+##### Examples: 
+![Member Example Images](../assets/platform-member-examples.png)
+
+#### Description
+
+Again, feel free to write whatever you want to share.
+Especially interesting for the community might be: Your involvement in Precious Plastic or generally
+plastic related activities. Your background/profession and skills you could offer to contribute to
+projects, and maybe also what you are looking for.
+This can help you to find and connect more easily with the right people!
+
+#### Interact and connect with the Community
+
+As a member you’ll be able to add How-to’s and events, but you won’t have a pin on the map. But if
+there is a Community Point in your area, reach out, so you can connect with that local group :)
+
+### Collection Point
+You’re collecting plastic? Great! Here we’ll ask you for: 
+
+#### Plastic types 
+
+Select the plastic types you accept, so people know which ones they can bring to you and become more aware of the different types at the same time. 
+
+#### Opening hours 
+
+Should be clear, this shows everyone when they can drop by :) 
+
+#### Photo 
+
+Add how your space looks like, so it’s easier for everyone to find where they can bring their plastic. (If you have a logo, you can include it in the image, but please don’t take only your logo as an image. That makes it boring to explore and doesn’t show what you’re actually doing.) 
+##### Examples: 
+
+![Profile Example Images](../assets/platform-collection-examples.png)
+
+
+#### Description 
+
+Write a little text about your Collection Point. It’s nice to include: 
+- When did you start? 
+- How do you wish to get the plastic (Cleaned? Sorted?) 
+- How much do/can you take? 
+- Where does the plastic go after it comes to you? (Always interesting to know) 
+
+#### Map pin 
+
+Add your location to enable people to find you. 
+
+
+### Machine Shop
+
+You build Precious Plastic machines? You rock! Here we’ll ask you for: 
+
+#### Services 
+
+Let people know what exact services they can expect from you. That saves others’ time and energy to ask questions, and it saves your energy to answer them. 
+
+#### Photo 
+
+Add a photo of the Precious Plastic machines you already built, so that people see you’re serious and what machines and quality they can expect. Another option would be to show your workspace. (If you have a logo, you can include it in the image, but please don’t take only your logo as an image. That makes it boring to explore and doesn’t show what you’re actually doing.) 
+##### Examples: 
+![Profile Example Images](../assets/platform-machine-examples.png)
+
+#### Description 
+
+Write a little text about your Machine Shop. It’s nice to include: 
+- When did you start? 
+- Which machines did you build already or do you offer to build? 
+
+#### Bazar 
+
+As a machine shop, we would definitely recommend to add a link to your profile on the Bazar, so people can directly see more information about your machines, prices and services.
+
+#### Map pin 
+
+Add your location to enable people to find you. 
+
+
+### Workspace
+
+You run a Precious Plastic workspace? Yeeeah! 
+
+#### Type of workspace 
+
+Let people know which machine you’re mainly working on. If you don’t focus on one specific machine or output, select the MIX workspace. 
+
+#### Photo 
+
+Add a photo of your recycling machines (and/or some of your products), so that people see you’re serious and have fun exploring your profile. 
+If you have a logo, you can include it in the image, but please don’t take only your logo as an image. That makes it boring to explore and doesn’t show what you’re actually doing.
+##### Examples: 
+![Profile Example Images](../assets/platform-workspace-examples.png)
+
+
+#### Description 
+
+Write a little text about your Workspace. It’s nice to include: 
+- When did you start? 
+- How big is your team? 
+- Which machines are you working with? 
+- What products/other activities are you doing? 
+
+#### Bazar 
+
+If you have products to sell, we would definitely recommend to add the link to your profile on the Bazar, so people can directly see more information about your products and prices etc.
+
+#### Map pin 
+
+Add your location to enable people to find you. 
+
+### Community Point
+Are you a local recycling community? Awesome! Here we ask for: 
+
+#### Photo 
+Add a photo of the people in your local community. For example, one of your meetups or cleanups. 
+
+##### Examples: 
+
+![Profile Example Images](../assets/platform-community-examples.png)
+
+
+#### Description 
+Write a little text about your group and activities. It’s nice to include: 
+- When did you start? 
+- How big is your group? 
+- In which area are you working and connecting? 
+- Do you have regular meetup times or open days? And when? 
+
+#### Contact link 
+Add an invitation link to the communication tool you mainly use (might be whatsapp, telegram, slack, wechat or others), so others can join the group easily. If you don’t have one yet, maybe consider setting one up! Check out more tips on this [How-to](https://community.preciousplastic.com/how-to/set-up-a-community-point).
+
+Also include a contact/email of the main community builder in your group who has the best overview of the area and can answer newcomers’ questions.
