Hi all,

as per Howie's email, the rating tool is now live on most of the pages
nominated above. Please feel free to nominate additional pages. As a
reminder, this is still an experiment -- we're still trying to
determine the value of reader ratings. Right now we're analyzing both
the degree to which these ratings reflect observed changes in quality,
and we're planning a test for using the reader rating feature as an
invitation to edit.
