Let us see some examples here, consider criket and football, How do we know Sachin and Messi are best?? Their ratings!! Here we have a verity of players in a very large numbers. A rating scale will definitely help the other players to understand their partners. And this what Bridge is all about, understanding your partner and opponent's bid.

You suggestions are reasonable, A button named "Player statistics" can be provided, It should contain all the relevant information about the player

"MANY" people aren't a good judge of other's abilities, not "MOST"

It's about rating a player, an idea followed in most of the commercial websites. Similar to "Like" and "Comment" in Facebook 1. A player can be rated on a 10 point scale by other players to get a better idea of their skill level. 2. A feedback box which can contain the comments of other players with their name visible. 3. The player should be able to see above 2. But cannot Edit it. 4. The right of edition of objectionable comments should remain with the concerned authorities, the player may request them for edition.
