Breaking out the results on a per-article would be a nightmare.
What stats would you be interested in? (Don't say "everything")

Traffic Sources Overview and Map Overlay  What about making this feature available to gold members only?

With 9,000 authors this is a little painful to do
We'll setup something automated.

How about allowing authors to enter their own analytics URL when they post articles? You just need to render it along with the article. I think that will be helpful.

I inquired about adding such functionality to my articles a while back, and Chris said that the privacy policies on the site do not allow individual users to add this functionality to their articles.

Hello,
As far as I know you have some plans to make an api for codeproject. What about exposing these data through the api to authors of the article only?
Also, download count for files. Google analytics also allows to track file downloads so what about using it instead of developing your own solution?
Thank you

All though I think this is a nice idea, I am not particularly fond of the fact that it seems to be mandatory for 1 and 2 votes, and is not aware of posts already made. Eventually I'll learn to remember a bout this and vote before I comment (so I can use this, and just change the post title by editing), but for now it is quite annoying, and causes my to leave dumb posts like "see below". I rarely low vote an article without leaving a post to explain why, and this seems overkill to deal with a few rude idiots. A "post already made" checkbox, in lieu of a programmatic check would be nice...

But this would allow people to circumvent actually making a post and hence would defeat the purpose.

True enough. Guess you'll just have to put up with a few duplicate posts from me, I'm a slow learner.

I'm placing the vote control inside the 'Add a message' page so you can hit two birds with one stone.

Thanks, Chris. That'll fix it for me!

It's not very democratic to only expose low votes - it might cause some kind of psychological bias towards higher marks. You'll forgive me if I post low votes without providing a reason, right?

The voting system is meant to alert readers to the good stuff, and advise authors on where they need improvement. A vote with no message doesn't help an author. A vote and a 'this is why I voted bad' helps an author improve. A high vote is just a "Thanks - well done!" and doesn't really require a comment suggesting improvements.

I agree. This should be optionnal.
I noticed that since the system has been in use, there are fewer 1 and 2 and much more 3. So instead of being able to note articles with 5 notes, we are actually only using 3.
This will just have the side effect to artificially raise the note of recent articles, compared to older ones.

Having the forum links on the side is a nice change. However ... The "bold for new messages" highlighting of the forum names is not working. Hopped on this morning, and I had to go to each and every one of my usual haunts to check for new mesasges. There is no visible difference between those with new and those without. The time for my last visit was correct. (IE7)

Still broken in FF3.
Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots.

We haven't uploaded the next rev yet. The forum title area has been fixed, though.

The links at the top are messed up for FF2. I think John said he had issues with FF3 as well.

I have FF3 and yes they are messed up in that browser as well.

Yep, I second that.

Given the "popularity" (I hate cryptic crosswords) of Dave's Cryptic Crossword clues, you ought to buy him a copy of this[^] and get him to do a cryptic crossword for the weekly news.
We also need logic puzzles, suduko, lateral thinking problems and other fun stuff to provide a diversion.

This[^] articles shows a "Modify" link on top and I can continue editing it even though I am not the author of that article.
