Ooh! Wikinews have a page rating system for their readers to use. How long has that been in use for and how much traffic does it get and is it in use on any other Wikimedia projects? There is also a "Share this" feature to allow cross-linking and social bookmarking. Nice. Same questions for that feature!

The above was the closest I could get to the news article rating feature. Is there a wikinews page somewhere about that?

I've contributed to Wikinews and reviewed articles for flagging, but I've never even submitted a "what do you think" form, or even heard it discussed on the channel or their mailing list. I think it's safe to say it's not very well used.

I have quite a few times. I think it's fair to say it's aimed more at readers than editors.
