Field notes
The suggested workflow starts with a YouTube link and ends with a half-star rating and a short review. Channel pages are meant to hold discussions about individual uploads, while member profiles can pin four favorite channels. The visible sample contains six reviews from one member, ranging from family memories of Primitive Technology to a brief note about a sailing channel; the page also says creators can heart reviews.
