:These ratings will help people with lower PC specs more quickly than just reading a wall of text so that way they can still enjoy the games without it being a resource hog just to keep the emulation 100% accurate at all times. I would know because I am currently in that state.

:I don't consider any of what I am doing a waste of effort. I'm trying to address the core problems this wiki is facing; keeping things up-to-date and user-friendly by trying to implement things I know works on other Wikis, such as [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net Bulbapedia] and [http://www.wiibrew.org WiiBrew], but make them feel right for Dolphin Wiki specifically. --[[User:Wildgoosespeeder|Wildgoosespeeder]] ([[User talk:Wildgoosespeeder|talk]]) 20:08, 7 November 2015 (CET)

====Emulation Info====
====Counts of Pages By # of Issues====
My point on the ~650 pages with issues was too fold; 1) It will take a while for anyone to review and populate things across that many page 2) Given the number of titles on the site that are not rated Perfect, there is a huge gap in simply capturing problems (I'd prefer to focus on capturing more, than rating ones that are currently captured).
 
Here's a full rundown of the the number of pages based on their approximate number of problems...
*Only 1: 364
*Only 2: 149
*Only 3: 54
*Only 4: 28
*Only 5: 12
*Only 6: 14
*Only 7: 3
*Only 8: 6
*Only 9: 5
*Only 10: 2
*Only 11: 1
*Only 12: 2
*Only 13: 4
*Only 14: 2
*Only 15: 1
...I remain unclear that a "wall of text" is actually a problem, as there are so few pages that have enough issues for there to be a "wall of text" (i.e. there are only ~7 pages that have 7 issue or more). I remain unconvinced based on the low number of pages with many issues, that assigning significance ratings to things is of much importance. There might be some meta-data for problems it might be worth capturing though like the first/last revision known to include a problem. That might be a better way to assign a non-arbitrary rating for things that would help to identify problems that may need re-review as we could subtract that revision from the current revision and work out an age/age since review for each problem. That info is really only useful to editors though, so I'm not sure it needs a banner displayed rather than something that would invisibly spit out relevant categories.

One minor point, though I'm not supportive of the ratings banners, stylistically they probably should be floated right to sit beside each heading.
