Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: As the minimum number of ratings increase, the distribution of average ratings across all categories changes. Eventually it approaches something looking like a normal distribution (maybe not, haven't checked yet), but the most dramatic change happens after the number of ratings exceeds 4.
This is the case because we are looking at the average of 4 possible categories, so 4 is the highest number of submitted ratings which could be added by the same person (without active effort on their part). One person is far more likely to rate an article the same on all four categories (resulting in a whole number average) than two or more people. Taken from the Article Feedback Tool database dump.
