The ImageRating extension adds a new special page, Special:ImageRating, where privileged users can categorize and rate images. By default all registered users are given the rateimage user right , which is required for users to be able to access this special page.

The rating functionality uses VoteNY extension, and thus VoteNY is a hard dependency for this extension, i.e. you cannot install and/or use ImageRating without installing VoteNY, too.
