Quiz rating

A one-tap rating collected from the taker right after finishing.

Decision: ⚪ idea

Context

After completing a community quiz, before or beside the result screen, the taker is asked how good the quiz was.

The score:

• an integer from 0 to 10, nothing between - 0 is worthless, 10 is excellent
• one tap on a 0-10 row, no separate confirm step
• skippable, and a skip is not a 0 - it is no rating at all
• one score per user per quiz, editable while the result is open, overwritten on a retake
• optional free-text note attached to the score

The average of all scores feeds quality score; scores and notes go back to the creator as feedback.

Opportunity

• The only signal that captures whether a quiz was worth taking, as opposed to whether it was finished.
• Collected at the point of highest engagement, so it costs almost nothing to ask.
• Gives creators a feedback loop, and gives moderation a soft signal for re-reviewing quizzes that degrade.

Risk

• Anything placed between the questionnaire and the result costs completions, and it competes with sharing at the exact moment we want a share.
• Creators can self-rate and brigade; low-sample averages are noise and need a threshold.
• An 11-point row is wide on mobile and invites lazy anchoring at the ends - the scale has to survive a phone screen.
• Political disagreement gets rated as low quality - a quiz can be marked down for its conclusions.
