COMPLETED - Help Needed - Rank, Rate, Vote for the "best" Coop Pages"

THIS JOB IS COMPLETE: http://www.backyardchickens.com/t/703536/help-needed-rank-rate-vote-for-the-best-coop-pages/40#post_9577835

 

 

 

 

It's that time again!

 

We need your help in rating and ranking recently submitted chicken coop pages!

 

 

 

 


Here are the steps:

Finished!  to be taken to the review page: 
Enter your email address (this is to help make sure you don't get the same coops over and over again)
You'll be given 4 links to coops to review.  You'll need to answer two simple questions:

1)  Rank the coop on a scale of 1 - 5  (1 = least favorite, and 5 = your absolute favorite)
2)  Determine the size of the coop (1 = tractor, 2 = small, 3 = medium, 4 = large)

Click submit smile

There are LOTS of coops and we're hoping everyone will take a few minutes to at least rate a handful.    We're trying to get at least 10 opinions on every coop.  Fortunately the system manages everything for us.  smile

Once we've received at least 10 ratings per coop page the system will let us know that the job is complete.

If you have any problems or questions, post them here!

NOTE:  To clarify:  We don't expect any members to go through all the coops on their own!  Review as many as you are willing and able (even if it is just 4) but don't feel like you have to go through them all!

Okay...to clarify...

 

Are we ranking the coops based on what we like (cute/creative) or are we ranking them based on how useful/helpful the coop page is??

Per the instructions on the rating page:

 

Quote:

Rate the coop page on a scale of 1 - 5 (5 being fantastic information and pictures, 1 being poor information, poor pictures, etc.).

 

Base your judgment on:

 

1) More pictures is better, especially if the pictures are clear, easy to see & understand, and capture many aspects of the building of the coop

2) The more information about the coop (plans, details on how it was built, etc.) the better.

3) How helpful would the page be to you if you wanted to build a chicken coop?

 

NOTE: You are NOT judging how nice the coop looks! We are looking for the amount and quality of the details and helpfulness of the information and pictures.

 

Second: Determine the “size” of the chicken coop:

 

1 = tractor (has wheels and/or is otherwise portable) 2 = small 3 = medium 4 = large

I'm in!  But I'm working on 2 coops, so I'll start tonight when I have no more light to work with.

You shouldn't have any problems at all, but I'm not 100% familiar with the setup of the system we are using (crowdflower) for managing the votes.  What message do you receive?

I thought I'd just sign in and then I thought I'd just take a peek. Getting dark, so I guess I need to at least go measure for a door. Heck I can make that while I'm inside. 

 

I always do this when I see coop pages.
