What the rating calculator changes
A public star rating can look strong before enough readers vote. The calculator gives the public rating more weight as its vote count grows. It uses the catalog average as a starting point for small samples.
The baseline is the median vote count in our catalog. The percentile compares your result with adjusted ratings from 18,445 rated records.
Use ratings with review text
The adjusted result can help you compare ratings with different sample sizes. It cannot explain why readers chose a score. Read recent reviews before you change a story, translation, cover, or description.
Web Novel Rating Calculator FAQ
How does the Web Novel Rating Calculator work?
It combines your star rating and vote count with the vote-weighted catalog average. Ratings with few votes move closer to that average.
Why does vote count change the adjusted rating?
A 5-star rating from three votes is less stable than a 5-star rating from 300 votes. More votes make the public rating carry more weight in the result.
Does the adjusted rating replace reader reviews?
No. The result only adds sample-size context. Read recent reviews to learn what readers liked, disliked, or found unclear.
