I'm sorry if it's not an appropriate question for this site, and if it's necesary I'll close this question. But maybe someone could give me an ideea:
I'm trying to find a more complex index to make an hierarchy. For example:
5 votes from 6 = 83% AND
500 votes from 600 = 83%;
10 votes from 600 = 1.66%
If I make a hierarchy with the %, first two will be on the same place, but I think that 83% from 600 it's more valuable than the first one.
I could compare 5, 10, 500, but again it's not fair because the third case (10 votes) will be in front of the first case (5 votes), wich it's not fair beacuse the third case has only 1.66%
Maybe someone could give me an ideea how to give more weight for the second case but in the same time let the let the new entries have a fair chance.
