The BanklessDAO Notion site (the one you’re on right now) is used as a central document store for all of the different work being done by guilds, departments, projects, and anyone else who is part of the team. By default, the entire BanklessDAO site is open to view by anyone for transparency.

The following guiding principles are how we make the Notion site work for a decentralized organization like BanklessDAO.
Pages should be published within the guild, department, or project for which they are most relevant. Permissions should be set by groups for their own specific needs. Centralized pages and permissions should be avoided.
Pages should be publicly viewable by default, unless there is a GOOD reason to restrict access. Even then, pages in the workspace should not be restricted to a single person.
Groups on Discord should have associated pages on Notion. Users should use the same name on Notion that they do on Discord.
These best practices are the guiding principles in action.
As a result of this proposal, Notion administration permissions have been decentralized to reduce potential attacks and increase the ability of groups to execute. This has the added value of reducing the centralized Notion administration that needs to be done.
Permissions for sub-pages are, by default, the same as the page they are created under. This means, as long as a group keeps all pages under a single root page, they can manage permissions in a single place. This connection can be broken, however, to allow for more granular permissions for sub-pages. It can also be restored later for cleanup, so feel free to use this setting as it best fits your group’s needs.
If you want access to edit a page, reach out to the Notion Admin for that group. Most can be found on the Group Notion Admins page.
