Motivation
With so many audio, video, photos being uploaded to a site, the visitor has no way of knowing which are the best ones without looking through all of them. By providing a ratings tool, we can let the users themselves select the ones they like, to make it easier for others to find highly rated content.
The interface should be very simple, preferably using Ajax to not require a page refresh. The user should simply click on a star to assign a rating of 1 to 5.
We may want to have a separate rating system for editors, so that you can show the user rating and the editor rating.
