I'm beginning to take a look at the multi-axis review system... using this tutorial:
http://drupal.org/node/457886

According to this, it appears the way to write a review is to create a new "Review" content type... and find the product you want to review using the node reference drop-down menu.

In my case it will be rating locations - and many locations may even have the same name. Selecting from a node reference will not work that well.

I am trying to think of a way that while a user is on a product/location page.... there would be a "write a review" link or something. Then when the user clicks the link and is redirected to the "create a Review" page, the node reference will already have that particular location (or product) selected so the user does not have to find it.

Anybody have this figured out?

You could use the node relativity module to create parent/child (location/review) type relationships. Then on the parent node the "write a review" link would be something like this:

print l(t('write a review'), "node/add/review/parent/$node->nid", array('attributes' => array('class' => 'relativity_create_' . $type, 'rel' =>  'nofollow')));

Hope that helps.

Hmm.. interesting... That's exactly the kind of thing I was thinking about!

Really appreciate the input, I will give it a shot and reply back in case anybody else is looking into this as well.

Well it's looking like the node relativity module may do the trick... but haven't gotten it working just yet.

I'm using panels, so trying to figure out how to implement the link. Haven't been able to get the link to show in a block yet and not sure why... so may have to look for another way.

If I remember correctly, I think the node relativity module has a "link operations" block by default. Maybe this will do what you need.
