[meta] a review template?

Maybe we could establish a simple template for the reviews?

Something like x/5 ratings for a few criteria :

  • Communities
  • Culture
  • Moderation
  • Availability
  • Performance
  • Federation

This won't replace a written assessment of course, it's just an at-a-glance view.

I like the general idea of having a template. This might prevent low effort one short sentence reviews.

However the template shouldn't strictly enforced. A reviewer might don't cover some criteria because he or she don't know how to review them or might have different criteria in mind.

I think putting an N/A in any criteria should be valid. But I agree on the non enforcement in general.
