EndorsementRating
A Schema.org Type
- Canonical URL: https://schema.org/EndorsementRating
- Check for open issues.
An EndorsementRating is a rating that expresses some level of endorsement, for example inclusion in a "critic's pick" blog, a
"Like" or "+1" on a social network. It can be considered the result of an EndorseAction in which the object of the action is rated positively by
some agent. As is common elsewhere in schema.org, it is sometimes more useful to describe the results of such an action without explicitly describing the Action.
An EndorsementRating may be part of a numeric scale or organized system, but this is not required: having an explicit type for indicating a positive, endorsement rating is particularly useful in the absence of numeric scales as it helps consumers understand that the rating is broadly positive.

| Properties from Thing | ||
additionalType |
Text or URL |
An additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. Typically the value is a URI-identified RDF class, and in this case corresponds to the use of rdf:type in RDF. Text values can be used sparingly, for cases where useful information can be added without their being an appropriate schema to reference. In the case of text values, the class label should follow the schema.org style guide. |
alternateName |
Text | An alias for the item. |
description |
Text or TextObject |
A description of the item. |
