Coordinates Beta

Every value here is what the membership has the record at: the same trust-weighted blend of every member's placement that the record's own page shows, on the twenty-seven scales and the three criteria alike. Nothing here reads one member's rows. Which records are on the map is a judgement in two parts: SiteCurator and Mike mark a record at full relevance, and the membership must hold it at 60 or more on one of the three criteria, so getting a record onto this page is those two accounts' call, and keeping it here is everyone's. The non-prog records are the exception: they mark the bottom of a scale, so the second test would rule them out.

Today that blend is thin. Of the 270 records here, 34 have more than one member behind them, and the rest stand on a single assessment. Most came from one automated pass by a machine account, which makes the rows comparable but is also the whole of their authority. Nobody has checked that pass.

The three criteria marked beside each release are shaky too: around half of their values were never typed by anybody, since assigning a genre that implies a criterion writes it onto your rows. So a tick is not reliably anyone's opinion.

Only members can fix both. Open a record you know well (the scored set is a good start) and score it under Coordinates in its editor. You need not answer all twenty-seven scales; the ones you are sure of beat a complete guess. Answer the three criteria directly rather than leaving a genre to do it. Your values move these pages too, so a second and third assessor are all it takes for a scale to become the site's reading.
