# Analysis a reviews on Mangrove.reviews
|
|
|
|
MapComplete has - for some thematic maps - the ability to leave a review on a entity.
|
|
Up till now, I had no idea how much this feature was used. However, due to technical reasons I had another look to the reviews module and discovered the ['download all'-option](https://api.mangrove.reviews/reviews) on [mangrove.reviews](https://mangrove.reviews)
|
|
|
|
## Mangrove Clients
|
|
|
|
The analysis was made with data from 20 january 2023, downloaded around 17:00 UTC time.
|
|
|
|
This data contained 660 reviews. As the website making the review is recorded, we can make a breakdown of the top websites:
|
|
|
|
- https://mangrove.reviews is unsuprisingly the most popular website to make reviews on, with 318 reviews made
|
|
- MapComplete is the second (and the biggest 'external' website), with 192 reviews (of which 13 are made with the development version)
|
|
- toggenburg.swiss is third, with 35 reviews
|
|
|
|
A variety of smaller websites follows, each with a few reviews made. At first glance, most of them seem to be swiss or german.
|
|
Furthermore, there are 5 reviews made by `localhost:1234` and 7 by `localhost:5000`. The former is probably me, testing the creation of reviews while developing.
|
|
|
|
The full table is listed below.

## Themes
|
|
|
|
It seems that pet owners gave reviews the most. The 'pets'-theme - first known as the 'dog' theme - yielded 35 reviews in total (if summed).
|
|
The 'Pin je Punt'-campagin by Visit Flanders (which included pubs and cafés) is a close second with 29 reviews, followed by the shops theme.
|
|
|
|
While it might be surprising that the pets-theme has such a high number of reviews, the reason for this is straight-forward:
|
|
the review-module is placed on top of the infobox for vets, whereas most other layers do have the images block there.

## Language
|
|
|
|
At last, due to the full client URL being saved, we also know what language the user interface was in when the review was made:

## Locations
|
|
|
|
And as map makers, a quick geolocation-analysis can't miss as well.
|
|
|
|
Unsurprisingly, most of the reviews are in Europe:

|
|
When zooming in, a clear cluster in Switzerland and Flanders is visible:

When keeping only the Reviews made with MapComplete, the cluster in Flanders remains:

# Conclusions
|
|
|
|
So, no big conclusions and surprises in this little analysis.
|
|
The reviews are being used - but not very much, especially in comparison with the image-upload feature.
|
|
Placing the reviews higher up might help or including in into the questions flow.
|
|
The core question is how important reviews are within the vision of MapComplete.
