Star Ratings Tutorial: Introduction
Groups on Squidoo are like the head of our Squid. They are the place that gathers everything up into one squid with lots of 'long tails' that are interrelated.
Groups create 'community.' A community sticks together for a common purpose or purposes, helping one another, sharing with each other and bringing in other interested people that we can all benefit from, and that can benefit from us.
The Mall on Squidoo is just such a squid. From the perspective of a group master, instead of a lensmaster, star rankings are a tool to grow and develop this community. For pure and simple lensmastering, star rankings are also a tool, but of a more personal kind.
There have been a LOT of issues lately with one-star rankings. A LOT of hard feelings and problems have come up over this.
A tutorial and some groundwork is necessary to help us understand what it means when, as a group master, the ranking I give isn't what you hoped for. It is also very useful for you to understand how to get your ranking improved, what the rankings actually mean, and how to use them as a tool to improve your work overall.
AN IMPORTANT POINT: I CAN INCREASE THE RANK I GIVE ANY LENS UNTIL IT REACHES 5 STARS.
Other than that, once you have received 5 stars from me, I can never rate that particular lens again.
