I don't think the rating system is serving any purpose. Hardly anyone rates a document, etc. and when they do, it's almost always a 5 star. The "like" feature is not being used frequently enough to matter either. It's funny to see items in a "Most Liked" list with only 1 like.
Maybe they need to be made more prominent, so they people actually notice they exist.
