Summary: Access to ratings difficult, leading to "dummy-ratings" Product: MediaWiki extensions Version: any Platform: All URL: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Guitar OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: Normal Component: ReaderFeedback AssignedTo: jschulz_4...@msn.com ReportedBy: g.m.haged...@gmail.com The only possible access to previous ratings seems to be after rating a page. In this case, the rating is shown on top and "Thank you for reviewing this page! (see results) (comments or questions?)." with see results linking to http://en.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RatingHistory&target=Guitar and comments linking to http://en.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Guitar&action=edit§ion=new ---- a) A link in the rating box at the bottom of the page itself would be desirable. Presently there is not access to inform oneself about other readers opinions without actually forming an opinion oneself. While it is desirable to have as many well-founded ratings as possible, it is not desirable to have dummy-ratings because users have to enter an ill-founded rating to be able to see other peoples ratings "What do you think of this page? - Please take a moment to rate this page below. Your feedback is valuable and helps us improve our website." Might be changed to: "What do you think of this page? - Please take a moment to rate it. Your feedback is valuable and helps us improve our website. (Previous ratings)" ---- b) It would be desirable to support short URLs like http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Special:RatingHistory/Guitar to simplify linking -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
