Wiki:Article Rating
From Roader's Digest: The SABRE Wiki
This article is a draft, please feel free to edit this as required
The article rating system was set up to replace Article of the Month. A new {{Rating}} template has been set up which will allow a rating from 1-5 to be given to each article.

Usage
After the bot has made its first run, the {{Rating}} will be found at the bottom of most articles. It takes a single parameter, which should be a number between 1 and 5, if left blank it will default to 0 (unrated). For example, {{Rating|3}} will rate an article as 3 stars.
Once the specifics of the system have been ironed out, articles will be categorised by their rating, and a small selection of the best articles will be featured on the front page at random.
