Announcement The Coop Page / Article Rating & Review Project!

[Nifty-Chicken]

Oh my goodness we will be having a round 2!!

... and 3, and 4, and 5....



I just told Sumi that this will be a marathon and not a sprint... but it's for a really good cause! Once each coop article has 5 reviews, we'll have a REALLY great sense for not only the best pages, but which ones should be fixed and maybe even removed.

Yes! Totally worth it! That's why I am still here.

I know I went to the pages for ideas with every redo of my set up.
I found tons of useful information.

You are wayyy nicer than we are. SavKel and i have been discussing a rating system all weekend. Generally we determined that 5 stars needs: pictures, instructions, and reasoning. And an update saying what did and didn't work. I'm sure you have all seen one of these that went above and beyond (if not i can link one). Then the ones with one or two pictures of the outside (as minimal of an article as you can make) is one star. Then we scale everything in between accordingly.
Pretty sure that makes us one of the harsher raters, but as each coop gets five, i figure the average will balance nicely.

Haha I had to go back and re-rate some of mine. I started out giving 4 stars to a terrible article because I felt bad, I’m trying to be stricter for the cause!

I'm rating all of mine anonymously so I don't have to worry about that. But getting a 1 or a 5 from me is really hard.

Same here, it's pretty tricky to get a 5 star out of me cause I'm a big fan of size of coop and wordiness of coop page

What do I do for the coops I have absolutely nothing to say about but have a rating for. Is it okay if I just give stars for those?

That's what I have been doing.

That's what I have been doing.

Okay, thanks! But I must admit for the other 98% it is pretty tiresome to write out reviews...that might never be seen by the owner

Owners come back.

Owners come back.

I’ve been trying to write at least two sentences. Something I like, and something that could be improved.
