PEER DRIVEN EDITING
A system, a machine-readable storage medium storing instructions, and a computer-implemented method are directed to a Peer Driven Editing Engine (hereinafter “PDE Engine”) that updates a profile of a target member account in a professional social network service (hereinafter “social network”) based on information provided from other member accounts. The PDE Engine identifies a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network. The PDE Engine determines a target member account qualifies for an update with the particular type of profile attribute. The PDE Engine generates a prompt based on the particular type of profile attribute. The PDE Engine generates profile update content based on the target member account's response to the prompt. The PDE Engine includes the particular type of profile attribute in the target member account according to the profile update content.

including the particular type of profile attribute in the target member account according to the profile update content.
2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein determining a target member account qualifies for an update with the particular type of profile attribute comprises:
generating an inquiry based on the particular type of profile attribute for the member account; and
responsive to the inquiry, receiving an identification of the target member account.
3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein identifying a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network comprises:
determining a profile of the member account in the social network meets a profile completeness threshold; and
identifying the particular type of profile attribute from the profile of the member account.
4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 3 , wherein receiving an identification of the target member account comprises:
validating the target member based at least on (a) at least a degree of connection in the social network exists between member account and the target member account and (b) a profile of the target member account in the social network fails to meet the profile completeness threshold.
5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein identifying a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network comprises:
determining the member account in the social network meets an engagement usage threshold; and
identifying the particular type of profile attribute from the profile of the member account.
6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein receiving an identification of the target member account comprises:
validating the target member based at least on (a) at least a degree of connection in the social network exists between member account and the target member account and (b) the target member account in the social network fails to meet the engagement usage threshold.
7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein identifying a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network comprises one of:
identifying an identification of an educational institution; and
identifying an identification of an employer.
8 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing executable instructions thereon,
which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations including: identifying a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network;
determining a target member account qualifies for an update with the particular type of profile attribute;
generating a prompt based on the particular type of profile attribute;
generating profile update content based on the target member account's response to the prompt; and
including the particular type of profile attribute in the target member account according to the profile update content.
9 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein determining a target member account qualifies for an update with the particular type of profile attribute comprises:
generating an inquiry based on the particular type of profile attribute for the member account; and
responsive to the inquiry, receiving an identification of the target member account.
10 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 9 , wherein identifying a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network comprises:
determining a profile of the member account in the social network meets a profile completeness threshold; and
identifying the particular type of profile attribute from the profile of the member account.
11 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein receiving an identification of the target member account comprises:
validating the target member based at least on (a) at least a degree of connection in the social network exists between member account and the target member account and (b) a profile of the target member account in the social network fails to meet the profile completeness threshold.
12 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 9 , wherein identifying a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network comprises:
determining the member account in the social network meets an engagement usage threshold; and
identifying the particular type of profile attribute from the profile of the member account.
13 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein receiving an identification of the target member account comprises:
validating the target member based at least on (a) at least a degree of connection in the social network exists between member account and the target member account and (b) the target member account in the social network fails to meet the engagement usage threshold.
14 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein identifying a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network comprises one of:
identifying an identification of an educational institution; and
identifying an identification of an employer.
15 . A computer system comprising:
a processor;
a memory device holding an instruction set executable on the processor to cause the computer system to perform operations comprising:
identifying a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network;
determining a target member account qualifies for an update with the particular type of profile attribute;
generating a prompt based on the particular type of profile attribute;
generating profile update content based on the target member account's response to the prompt; and
including the particular type of profile attribute in the target member account according to the profile update content.
16 . The computer system of claim 15 , wherein determining a target member account qualifies for an update with the particular type of profile attribute comprises:
generating an inquiry based on the particular type of profile attribute for the member account; and
responsive to the inquiry, receiving an identification of the target member account.
17 . The computer system of claim 16 , wherein identifying a particular type of profile attribute of a member account in a social network comprises:
determining a profile of the member account in the social network meets a profile completeness threshold; and
identifying the particular type of profile attribute from the profile of the member account.
18 . The computer system of claim 17 , wherein receiving an identification of the target member account comprises:
validating the target member based at least on (a) at least a degree of connection in the social network exists between member account and the target member account and (b) a profile of the target member account in the social network fails to meet the profile completeness threshold.
