(翻译)内容评价(Rate Content)
- 用于想为用户提供一种机制来管控风险:一项内容是否值得投入时间和/或金钱;
- 用于想通过用户的帮助来民主地决定什么内容质量更高;
- 用于想借助用户的口碑来指引其它用户分辨内容的好坏;
- 用于当网站用户基数很大时;
- 用于当认为可以信任用户的主观意见并通过用户的意见来决定哪些项目的质量更高时[2];
- 小众网站不要使用本模式。只有大量的用户和强大的社区才能保证有足够的投票数量,相应地,项目之间的得票数对比才有意义[3]。
- 投票机制。提供一种机制让用户在一定数值范围内对项目进行评价。最常用的范围是1到5,1最低,5最高。每个用户一票,并且附带解释性的说明。当用户对项目进行评价后,网站应该给用户提供反馈,通知用户他们的评价已经被记录在案;
- 显示项目得到的平均评价水平。项目得到的平均评价水平显示了它的品质认知度,这会指导新用户是否值得在该项目上投入时间或金钱[6];
- 显示项目的解释说明。由于不同用户的主观意见不同,一个项目会被不同的用户以不同的理由给出或高或低的评价。一个用户眼中的瑕疵可能不会被另外的用户认可。为了让评价显得更有质量和深度,允许用户对自己给出的评价进行解释说明;
- 显示评价最高的项目。在主页上以列表的形式显示评价最高的项目;
- 突出高质量项目。在检索结果中、浏览标签、显示相关信息时凸显受评价较高的项目;
- 相关项目。显示项目的同时显示它得到的评价。此外,采用对该项目评价较高的人员创建相关项目列表,列表中包含的都是这些人员评价较高的项目。
[1]原文:The user wants to promote a specific piece of content in order to democratically help decide what content is of higher quality.
[2]原文:Use when you feel that you can trust your users’ subjective opinion on which items are of higher quality than others.
[3]原文:Do not use when your website has a small community. A large user base and a strong community is important for enough votes to be generated
and in turn for comparison between items to render meaningful.
[4]原文:Promote community participation by letting users democratically decide what is of higher quality. Consider accompanying quantitative ratings with qualitative comments or reviews.
[5]原文:The outcome is to allow users to guide other users about what is good and bad rather than to promote what is interesting.
[6]原文:Display the average rating an item has received. The average of all ratings an item has received shows the perceived quality of an item, and
will guide new users in whether an item is worthwhile.
[7]原文:When implementing a rating
system, you need to consider a number of things in relation to what it should be used for and how it should be communicated:
[9]原文:Design
your rating system so that you encourage the behavior you want. Making your rating system multi-dimensional by breaking up the full rating into sub-parts that by their title explain exactly what you want measured (rated), is one way of solving this problem.
