Signaling proposal

A referendum that records community preference without directly implementing the requested off-chain result.

In plain language

The on-chain action may be a remark, while any funding, policy response or implementation occurs separately.

Why it matters

Approval should not be reported as if the chain transferred money or completed the proposal's broader objective.
