If you are looking for a CMS extension that lets editors review pages, see Extension:FlaggedRevs.

Review lets any reader, logged in or not review the quality of a page. Additionally a 'ready for WP 1.0" boolean rating and support for custom types is present.

Under the review box is a link to the reader reviews and numeric rating averages.

[edit] Setup

  • Download the extension from SVN
  • Run the Review.sql query, substituting in your wiki's table prefix. Use Review.pg.sql instead if you use PostgreSQL.
  • Add the include_once('extensions/Review/Review.php'); line to LocalSettings.php.

[edit] Note

  • The review box is only supported for the monobook skin. Alternative skins support should be added.
  • Brief review comments may be supported in the future.
  • Interwiki language links and the cite extension can act oddly with these, such as bumping the review form below the link. To fix this, make sure the include() statements for such extensions are in the desired order. Cite should be first, then this one, then interwiki links and such.
