|| What is Uzeem?

Uzeem is a web-based conservatory that serves as an archive for preserving, curating, and showcasing a range of public domain and personal items related to specific events and pop culture topics. At Uzeem, we prioritize factual information above anything else. Like a museum, our platform is designed to 'hang (items) on a wall' for visitors to appreciate, consider, and interpret without outside input. We refrain from offering our opinions or taking stances on the events that shape the world; instead, we present them with all the accuracy possible. We aim to create timelines that everyone can refer to, both now and in the future, to learn about the pieces that contributed to the whole and form an educated understanding based on truth. While we do not facilitate discussions on our platform, we encourage visitors to engage in conversations and express their personal views about the content found in our zeems on our expanded channels - Uzeem's Library, Groups, and Social Media channels.

​

|| What sets Uzeem apart from other platforms?

Our primary goal is to safeguard our legacy. Frequently, valuable and popular topics are overlooked, fade away, and sometimes become entirely untraceable. Our distinctiveness lies in conserving such significant stories by developing a channel people can refer to and rely on. We also aim to present factual information that can be taken as the basis for individual opinion formation without interference, bias, or agendas. 

​

|| What is a Uzeem Gallery?  

Uzeem galleries are topic-specific spaces made of zeems

 

|| What is a zeem?

A zeem is a public gallery room displaying a timeline of videos, images, photos, and documents that we call 'items' in reverse chronological order to tell stories about a specific topic or event. Our goal is to provide a delightful and exciting journey for Zeem visitors, taking them back to the origins of each item and showing them the legacy it leaves behind. 

Reliable information is a fundamental aspect of Uzeem. Our concept is built on truth, objectivity, and accuracy. One of the key responsibilities of our Curators team is to keep track of changes and assist us in fulfilling our promise. We also rely on our visitors to help us keep the details of each item up-to-date. A link on every Item Page makes it easy to report broken URLs, incorrect sources, and copyright infringements.

​

|| Who can take part in helping Uzeem fulfill its mission?

Aside from our curators, any visitor interested in preserving factual information is welcome to help us discover and index items in the public domain to be added to our timelines.  People who have owned, collected, witnessed, received, inherited, and cherished these items enhance the overall experience, as their personal stories can reveal a unique perspective and the human element that brings us closer together as a society. Historians and connoisseurs undergo a rigid selection process to become an 'Expert Curator.' They must demonstrate above-average knowledge and a high interest in a subject and be willing to contribute to history more significantly. Ask us about how to apply to become an Expert Curator.

​

|| To whom do items submitted to zeems belong?

Public-domain or personal items submitted through any of our channels go through an approval process, where our team determines if all elements meet our requirements. That may include image quality, content tone, grammar accuracy, copyrights, etc. Uzeem can either approve or communicate with the curator and indicate the need for revisions until we are satisfied with the overall result. Once approved, the item becomes part of the conservatory and can only be deleted by Uzeem. Curators can request changes that may occur at our discretion.

​

|| What's the difference between a Curator and a Collaborator?  (FREE DURING BETA

A curator is someone who shares Uzeem's Curators' passion for preserving the history of pop culture topics and historical events, for the benefit of future generations. They help us improve visitors' experiences by creating amazing items.

Collaborators are interested in exchanging the items they add to our Zeems for a link to their channel. The more collaboration, the more backlinks they receive. This type of account provides an alternative to Sponsors and Dealers who display banners and other links across the platform. Learn more
