Thread:Talk:Article feedback/Discussion of pilot

Is this taking place and if so where? The faq suggests that some key questions will be examined: "What are some anticipated obstacles?

We'll keep a close look at some possible issues: There may be attempts to game the system. We will therefore carefully analyze rating behavior in this first pilot. The tool may be used by people whose knowledge on the topic they are assessing is limited. We will survey the users of the system, and will also compare the rating information we will receive against other rating instruments. Some rating designs may reduce the incentive to edit or discuss issues. In this pilot, we will not get things exactly right, but we are well aware of this potential issue, and plan to carefully study how ratings influence user interaction as a whole. Low-traffic articles may receive an insufficient number of ratings, or ratings may date too quickly to be useful as articles change."

All this looks good, but is it happening? Dougweller 10:01, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
