I have started to include anon ratings; this can be
switched via a
single variable to "non-anons only", so we can make the decision for the
final stage later (later=good:-)
Definitely!
I can see a lot of other wikis using this feature, however it turns out ...
One thing, though: On dial in, I can change the
ratings from the last
guy who got my current IP adress...
This may not actually be much of a problem. If we have casual Wikipedia
readers clicking on the "Rate this article" tab, most will be hit-and-run
anyway. Possibly an explanatory note for anons when a rating is already
present, if you can be bothered coding one. (People like anon NTL users -
with tens or hundreds of thousands of users showing the same proxy IP -
will definitely see this effect.) Suggest to them they get a login ;-)
Can anyone else think of an elegant solution to this one?
