Implementation of
http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal:Allow_image_rating_for_Commons
using http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ReaderFeedback or something
similar, customized for images.

Note, this extension has some scaling issues on enwikinews (the rating graphs do not load after x amount of ratings. Can't remember what x was, but i think it was ~500 for png and ~2000 for svgs. If you experiment with the time period button on https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikinews/en/w/index.php?title=Special:RatingHistory&target=Main_Page you'll be able to find it. See bug 21982). I imagine commons would have much more traffic/ratings than enwikinews would, so thats probably something that should be checked out before its being enabled.

Also, commons would need to decide what values for $wgFeedbackTags they want (what criteria they want to rate the images on).

Last of all, I don't know much about the public policy article feedback stuff, but that might be a better extension to ask to be enabled.

The public policy feedback is more graphical (looks better, more updated) and was just enabled on enwp. See the design at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Article_feedback/Public_Policy_Pilot/Design

I'll open up a discussion soon at the village pump and link to it ASAP.
