Article feedback/Ideas log

This page captures the suggestions for improving the Article Feedback Tool. The formatting of the page will be improved in the near future. For now, it is a simple list of ideas with no prioritization implied.


 * Courtesy diff link for a user to the previously rated revision when rating has expired (Bugzilla 29251)
 * Add legend to each star upon mouse hover (Bugzilla 29386) Added on 91122
 * Make rating tool more visually compact (Bug 29303)
 * Create page-centric dashboard with recent rating history and other page-specific metrics
 * Create a page for registered users where they can keep track of pages they rated
 * Allow permanent linking of pages scores (e.g. "Page A was among the 10 top rated pages of the English Wikipedia")
 * Revise the thresholds for inclusion in AFT Dashboard tables
 * Hide AFT for recently created pages (Bugzilla 29212)
 * Enable editors to opt out of the article feedback process via an option in their user preferences Available through preferences since 89673
 * Disable AFT on disambiguation pages added AFT blacklist category to disambiguation templates
 * Different calls to action
 * Comment box (e.g., "Suggestions for improvement")
 * Comments feed per article (for editors)
 * Ability to promote comments to talk page
 * Or put add comments directly on talk page
 * "Did you find what you were looking for?"
 * Checkbox of suggested improvements (e.g., needs image)
 * Ratings dashboard per article (e.g., ratings distribution, averages over time)
 * Add fifth parameter for accuracy. Many articles score well on the four measured parameters but contain serious factual inaccuracies.
 * For each parameter you should be able to find out how many individual votes there were for each possible rating, not just the average rating. Averages are too easy to manipulate.
