Incorrect Ratings
More and more I'm noticing people incorrectly changing the ratings putting a number directly on the list instead of in the ratings pages just undid 2 of the them from the same person.
We need all users to understand not to change the ratings that way or a way to prevent it as its going to get annoying and harder to change. 122.104.103.221 20:16, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
I think this is generally due to folks being unaware of how to work with the ratings templates. Some suggestions:
- Revise the ratings template to recognize the numbers an provide info on appropriate corrections.
- Revise the rating template so ratings link to the appropriate ratings edit page. I'm guessing this would mean generating separate templates per system.
However, we'll likely still see this (and the similar issue of pages using the rating vs ratings template) even then. Unfortunately the best solution may be to just continue to monitor things. The searches below can help with such...
- Use of the rating rather than ratings template (some unrelated results mixed in)
- Ratings template used with #'s
