I just tested (using the largely irrelevant and unused
Cookbook/NestedIf) to see if Rating2 would work on other pages. This
markup:
Rating: {{$FullName}-Rating$Rating2}
works fine.
(Without the nested PTV it would look like this:
Rating: {Cookbook.NestedIf-Rating$Rating2}
which is easier to read but then has to be edited in each recipe individually.)
Thus each recipe author can choose how they want to structure their
recipe documentation - a Talk page, a Ratings page, part of the main
recipe page, etc. However, I would suggest putting a link for editing
the ratings so users don't have to search around in the source to
figure it out:
[[{$FullName}-Rating|Ratings]]: {{$FullName}-Rating$Rating2}
(''[[{$FullName}-Rating?action=edit|Edit Ratings]]'')
Or the like...
Standardizing things has obvious advantages, but I'm afraid there's as
many opinions how to do it as there are recipe authors... Personally
I'll probably implement it on a Recipe-Rating page for my recipes.
