Governor Proposal Descriptions Standards
Ever since Compound Governor Alpha, Governor proposals have had an onchain, human-readable `description` field. Governor frontends like Tally, Compound and others follow this de-facto standard:
- 1.Proposal descriptions should be markdown text.
- 2.The first line of the description, regardless of format, is the title.
- 3.Everything after the first newline is the body of the proposal. Frontends should render it as markdown.
If a proposal description doesn’t follow this standard, Tally’s frontend will make a best-effort to render it, but it might not appear as intended.
If there’s a proposal that's onchain description isn’t rendering correctly, reach out to Tally support. Tally may be able to add a note about the formatting errors or add a cleaner description to supplement the on-chain one.
