Instead of numbers, we should use fractions out of 100. Since most of us on here are students and are familiar with the American grading system, we should use a standard A/B/C/D/F scale with accompanying percentages. So, somebody could grade shipping a 78/100, so a C+. Making things out of 100 makes grading things precisely easier.
Also I think we should allocate a certain number of multiplier points to the reviewer, to be used by category as needed. A reseller who wants quick IDs and is not as concerned by quality has different needs than somebody buying for personal use. Multiplier points can make it clear what the reviewer values. To make the final grade, you can just average all the letter grades to get a GPA of sorts, adding multiplier points to values like some classes are worth more credits than others and therefore count more in calculating GPA.
People need to get Uncertainty and Certainty straight. If something is low certainty, that means barbook, and if something is low uncertainty, that means physical. Not the other way around, damnit!
Finally, we should probably get rid of the Cost section. We all know what prices are expensive or not, what people are far more concerned about is if the ID is worth it. People should either put a value section right before the conclusion or just make the value section the conclusion where they say if the ID as reviewed is worth the price.
Also we should make a guide on making guides to help people make good ones.
