The ArticleRatings extension adds an interface for rating pages.
Privileged users (those with the change-rating
user right, by default members of the reviewers
group) will see a link on the toolbox on supported skins and they will be able to use the interface at Special:ChangeRating
to change pages' ratings.
This extension was developed for Brickimedia, and is not as portable as it could be.
Installation

Tags
<rating />
adds the rating of a page to a page. <rating />

will give the rating of title
.
Special pages

- Special:MassRatings – interface for getting the ratings of many pages at once.
Messages
- MediaWiki:Are-ratings – JSON file giving the name, codename (has to be 2 characters long), image, and link, for each rating. Should be an array of objects, in PHP-valid JSON. See Brickipedia for an example. The codename is just a 2 character string used by the software to identify the ratings, it doesn't matter what it is, as long as each rating's is different. Whichever rating comes first will be the default rating (the one used before the rating has been changed)
Variables
$wgARENamespaces = $wgContentNamespaces;
- Array of namespace numbers/constants that are allowed to have ratings on them.$wgAREUseInitialRatings = false;
- If true, the ratings tag has aninit-rating
parameter that wil set the initial rating to the codename supplied, not the default. Not recommended for production use, but can be used as a workaround to allow bots to use the extension.
