This is something I really don't understand. Why is the information,
which person likes a page in the wiki or how many rate it top not
"real world" information? I've been looking for a possibility to do
ratings with semantic annotations for a long time, I also think the
existing solutions are not very advanced (because they are lacking
semantics).

Wouldn't it be great to be able to perform an ask query for pages in a
wiki with a property = something and a rating of 4 or higher? Semantic
wikis can be used so elegantly to provide directories of all kinds,
why not incorporate users written reviews (could be done on discussion
pages) and user ratings? Web 2.0 can be so interesting, but the user
generated content does not always have to be a full article, but maybe
a quick rating. Semantic forms are great, but not everybody is willing
to provide a full article, but users can be drawn to leave some
feedback which is in my opinion a very interesting real world
information.

I'd really love to see some semantically annotated social-networking
features on wikis! Maybe a Semantic Ajax Rating extension?
