Thread:Talk:Article feedback/Continued Rollout of AFT/reply (8)

We were reluctant to publish the data from the post-rating survey precisely because it cannot be used to make any rigorous generalization. It is very useful, however, to give us a feeling of how the community at large (which as Jorm notes includes our readers) is responding to this experiment. I find it ironic that, as biased as this survey data surely is, we should dismiss it and take the negative feedback from less than 10 self-selected editors participating in this thread as representative of the true feelings of the community.

If we want to discuss the figures, Jorm omitted one small detail. This is data collected over 1 week, i.e. between 2011-07-04 and 2011-07-11. There has been roughly the same amount of users giving us feedback every week since the tool was deployed to 100K articles. There won't be any poll to decide on this or any other new feature that we are implementing as part of the strategic product plan. As we said before, this project is going on until we have collected enough data to understand how to make it a useful tool for our community at large. Constructive feedback on how to make this happen is, as usual, very welcome.
