# How to challenge

### Initiate a challenge

If evidence does not follow the curation criteria, the curator will start the challenge process. These are the steps:

1. &#x20;Click on the “Challenge button”
2. A new form will open for the curator to submit as much information as possible to back his claim that the applicant does not follow the curation criteria. This information will be forwarded to the jurors to make the final decision.
3. The following information should be added in this form:
   1. Title of the challenge

      > For example: Applicant does not follow criteria
   2. Description
      * Describe in text form why the evidence submitted does not follow the criteria.
      * You can add links, numbers, and all you consider necessary to prove your point.
   3. An attachment
      * Attach any document to better support your challenge
4. Deposit
   * Add your deposit which will be used to reward jurors and the case winner.
5. Click on “Send” to confirm your challenge submission

You have successfully initiated a challenge, now you can follow the updates on that badge’s profile.
