For those not familiar with ReaderFeedback, there's some background and 
screen shots at:

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ReaderFeedback

It allows readers to give feedback (duh ;) on the quality of a page, 
sticking a little bar down at the bottom of the article for it. (You've 
probably seen similar sorts of feedback solicitation on other sites like 
"Did you find this article helpful?") The scores can then be weighted by 
age and graphed, giving folks some idea of how an article is being 
perceived over time.

The exact details of what to ask and how many levels to request are 
configurable.

(This was developed as part of Flagged Revisions originally but has been 
split off so it's easier to deploy.)
