    Scorecard Comment user image

    I've noticed the use of icons next to Scorecard comments to display the categorize the comment source "type"

    WOT user (human)

    Blacklist; ie, hpHosts, malwaredomainlist.com

    Whitelist; ie, Digg

    It would be nice to know if other background images are used and what category they are placed in to.

    Also, it would be nice to know all the Whitelist sources, the Blacklist sources, and sources for other icons (if any).

    This would help the Wiki scorecard comment section.

    Re: Scorecard comment icons

    Actually, isn't necessarily a whitelist, it's the generic icon we use for all non-user entries that don't have their own icon. There's also:

    • for official comments from WOT administrators.
    • for adult website listings (e.g. our adult website crawler).
    • for Panda Security's blacklists.
    • for TRUSTe seal holders.

    TY

    I labeled whitelist based on image file name; maybe it should be changed from source_whitelist.png to source_generic.png
    The term / label whitelist suggests approval where generic, IMO is just referential

    Can you list the sources for the blacklist and [generic] whiitelist categories?
