Darth Tytis, great idea. We are developing a system for that. It's going to be done via AJAX. Already ahead of ya, but good idea! We will be hopfully starting the coding for it next tuesday. Shane (T - C - E) 21:09, 14 February 2007 (CST)
- Like Shane said, its being looked into... Ive got some great ideas about an actual design for the thing and Shane is looking into how it would be coded. It would be made absolutely clear that the rating is done by users of the wiki and not a rating/review of the episode sactioned by the Wiki itself. If people want to "bitch and whine" then thats the place of a forum, like Serenity said. --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 06:05, 15 February 2007 (CST)
Neutral Potentially this could be implemented at a forum as well. Then Battlewiki could choose whether or not the rating was a piece of information significant enough to report, and there'd be the honest separation of "if you don't like this rating, go argue it at the forum where they came up with it". Or we could not display the rating at all. I'm not sure where I stand on the issue presently, but I thought I'd throw another possibility in. --Steelviper 06:44, 15 February 2007 (CST)
Oppose
I might already have said this somewhere else, but I'm against introducing elements of subjectivity to a wiki. What I like about this place is that differences of opinions are confined to the talk pages, but that the main body of the work is purely objective. None of the bitching and whining that can be so common on forums.
Just a rating might be acceptable, but under no circumstances should we have comments about the episodes --Serenity 05:38, 15 February 2007 (CST)
