based on the first round of feedback I've changed things around a bit.

Ya I was playing with metallica

ruaok
don and I had discussed bad, unknown and good.
2007-03-12 07119, 2007
ruaok
but that looked ugly and gave the wrong impression.

I don't like the idea of making an edit to change the quality though :(
2007-03-12 07136, 2007
ruaok
well, its a data safety issue.
2007-03-12 07153, 2007

we don't want people setting an artist to low, making THEIR changes and then setting back to high.

I think quality is subjective and each person who stumbles across a release should be able to show their opinion
2007-03-12 07114, 2007
cooperaa
true...
2007-03-12 07115, 2007
ruaok
you want a rating system, basically.
2007-03-12 07121, 2007
cooperaa
yes
2007-03-12 07132, 2007
ruaok
that's VASTLY more complex/
2007-03-12 07138, 2007
cooperaa
popular artists who have a lot of subscribers will obviously get higher ratings...
2007-03-12 07139, 2007
ruaok
not even in the same ballpark.
2007-03-12 07142, 2007
cooperaa
making things harder to mess up
2007-03-12 07150, 2007
cooperaa
yes, I know
2007-03-12 07103, 2007
cooperaa
what is implemented now *is* a big step in the right direction I think
2007-03-12 07111, 2007
ruaok
I'm not convinced we need that.
2007-03-12 07136, 2007
ruaok
I'd like to tinker with this approach first. if it fails we can regroup and reconsider a full rating system.
2007-03-12 07131, 2007
ruaok
so, the question that I want to answer, (hopefully before I leave for 5 days) what the levels should be called.
2007-03-12 07136, 2007
ruaok
and what should something be by default?>
2007-03-12 07149, 2007
ruaok
I think the current system is ok, but no the best...
2007-03-12 07150, 2007
cooperaa
an advantage of giving +/- 1 is that it represents several opinions... if you see that Metallica's Master of Puppets has +223 you know pretty confidently that there's probably nothing to fix here
2007-03-12 07151, 2007
ruaok
not
2007-03-12 07127, 2007
cooperaa
what about unverified / unkown / verified?

280 * 20 = 5600 EDITS!!!

how can we vote on all those?

ruaok: can you please add a "approve" vote option? :(
2007-03-12 07114, 2007
ruaok
we have that for automods....
2007-03-12 07139, 2007
cooperaa
a radio button like Yes/No/Abstain/No Vote
2007-03-12 07101, 2007
cooperaa
I think that could considerably cut down the queue size
2007-03-12 07126, 2007
ruaok doubts it
2007-03-12 07142, 2007
cooperaa
I'd prove you wrong ;)
2007-03-12 07152, 2007
ruaok
that will lead people to abuse it, which in that turn means you're actually right.
2007-03-12 07108, 2007
ruaok
but lets just say that is not the goal of the excercise.

2007-03-12 07133, 2007
cooperaa
okay, but I think that we've entrusted the autoeditors with power... and we expect them not to abuse it
2007-03-12 07155, 2007
ruaok
its all about checks and balances. adding an approve voting option is not balanced.

ruaok: could it read "Data quality" rather than "Quality"?
2007-03-12 07128, 2007
BrianG
it kind of gives the impression that it's the quality of the artist since the addition is on the same line as other information about the artist

in general its quite ugly right now.
2007-03-12 07121, 2007

and adding the word data will make it worse.

what about just moving the data quality stuff to the "Info:" line?
2007-03-12 07147, 2007
BrianG
or where the change quality link is
2007-03-12 07114, 2007

some how combining the link and the status into one spot
