I think in the survey it needs to be defined what an "average" or "excellent" publication mean. I defined "excellent" as the ones with the high impact in their field and "average" as the ones with the low impact in the field but both being of very high quality (high quality means that conclusions are backed up with experiments and proper controls are used)

I would have defined it better, but I didn't know how. I think it is not possible to define an excellent and an average publication using current metrics. This is why I left it to the voters to intuitively put 'excellent' and 'average' in a relation to each other. All we need at this stage is to see roughly what the opinions are, and if the formula we are using at the moment is coming close to those opinions.
Once people start rating and looking at the scores, it may be that we need another survey to adjust the formula. Or maybe we need to calculate the score in a completely different way... -
