Hello. In trying to answer a question for myself, I discovered the following
outdated information.

The following FAQ page is out of date:
http://www.lugnet.com/~330/FAQ/Administrative/rating

The 1-100 rating system is no longer in place. I submit the following two
replacement FAQ/Aministrative entries:


What does it mean to "Highlight" an article?

If a member of LUGNET feels that a particular article is noteworthy, and that
others might enjoy reading it, the article may be "Highlighted" by selecting
from the drop-down menu at the bottom of the page. Three choices are available:
"Spotlight" (strongly recommended), "Highlight" (recommended), and "---" (no
recommendation).

Articles that reach a certain threshold rating are marked with explanation
points (in the web interface). This allows all LUGNET users to see which
articles are generating the most interest.

Additionally, articles that are particularly highly rated appear on the LUGNET
Spotlight page, and are listed on LUGNET's home page.

More information can be found at:

-------------


What is the difference between "Spotlighting" an article and "Highlighting" it?

Spotlighting is a stronger recommendation than Highlighting. On a 100 point
scale, Spotlighting is worth 100, and Highlighting is worth 75.

Thanks!
