TheTop100.net is all about 'collaborative assessment': lots of people working together and giving their views and comparisons on anything and everything.In a previous post we talked about simple, one-click voting. Here, we'll talk about going one step further in registering your opinion using the rating characteristics.
Ratings
While votes & stances express a view of an item's relative position, Ratings are a more fundamental, subjective assessment of an item's qualities.
Each list has a range of ratings criteria on which you can evaluate each individual item. Because no two Top 100 lists are the same, these criteria are different for every list, allowing a much more detailed and appropriate measure of inherent quality.
Hotels are just not the same as Historical Battles!
You'll find the ratings panel just below the Facts section on a list page, or on the right-hand side on an item page. Next to each rating characteristic you'll see the average score in 'stars' from everyone, as well as your own rating, and then a summary value for both.
(Dennis' tip: hover your mouse pointer over the stars to see exact values)
Submitting a Rating
If you haven't rated an item yet, the My Ratings section will appear blank. Click the 'Rate this' button to enter your ratings, and then click 'Submit'...
(Dennis' tip: the higher overall rating you give the more positive effect it will have on an item's ranking - and vice versa!)
