What do you guys think?

Yeah, I think it would limit the amount of stolen pictures.

Descriptions are a good idea. I like reading them when I see any particular shot. But it shouldn't be required.

People would just write stuff like "A red Ferrari" when we can clearly already see that in the photo.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. ES.com has bigger issues to deal with. Just my opinion.

I think that a description has to be like where the car was found, any background info., etc. too many people just put "what do you guys think" or "this lambo is sweet!"

Good informative descriptions add a bit to the rating.

Or better yet:

and there you go...

How can you automatically tell if a description is informative or not (I assume you aren't going photo by photo and checking which are or are not)?

We are not talking about artificial intelligence here, of course. But there are some patterns that can be used safely enough to rank the description as good or not-so-good.

"Ferrari F430" or "Cool red Ferrari" or just "" are not "good" descriptions, no doubt.
A few short sentences are generally a sign that the description is at least worthy.

This criterion can not be used as an important component of the rating, so we can allow for some heuristics here.

So, there is a way to take this parameter into account.
