# Ratings History Page
The **Ratings History** page is your complete rating ledger.
It records *every* score you give across **TV shows, Anime, and Movies** and turns them into a structured, filterable, and analytical timeline of your viewing opinions.
This page is designed for three main goals:
* To let you **check and edit past ratings**
* To help you **find anything you forgot to rate**
## You can access it here: [**https://simkl.com/my/history/ratings/**](https://simkl.com/my/history/ratings/)

### 1. Year-Based Rating Archive
Every rating you give on SIMKL is automatically stored under the year it was submitted.
At the top of the page, you can choose a year:
* 2026
* 2025
* 2024\
(and so on)
When you select a year, SIMKL instantly shows:
* How many items you rated that year
* Every title you scored
* The exact day you rated it
This allows you to:
* Revisit your taste from any year
* See how your preferences evolved
* Find older ratings without scrolling endlessly
Example:
> “You rated 154 items in 2025.”
This makes Ratings History behave like a **personal film & series diary**, organized by time.

## Rate Unrated: Find What You Forgot to Rate!
One of the most powerful tools inside SIMKL’s Ratings History is **Rate Unrated**.
SIMKL automatically tracks everything you watch or complete whether it is a movie, TV series, or anime.
However, many people finish titles and move on without ever rating them.
Over time, this creates **gaps in your profile** that reduce the accuracy of recommendations, statistics, and taste analysis.
The **Rate Unrated** button solves it, This button opens a special page that shows:
> All titles you watched or completed but never rated
When you click **⭐ Rate Unrated**, SIMKL opens a dedicated view that shows **only the titles you have already completed but never rated**. This creates a clean, focused queue of everything you forgot to score — no clutter, no already-rated items, just what needs attention.
#### What this page shows
This page lists:
* Movies you watched but never rated
* TV shows or anime you completed but never scored
* Titles across all years, filtered to only what is missing ratings
You can rate directly from this page by clicking the stars or entering a number. As soon as you rate something, it disappears from the list letting you steadily clear your backlog.
This makes it feel less like a chore and more like checking off a todo list.
#### Why this is extremely powerful
Ratings are the foundation of everything SIMKL personalizes for you:
* Recommendations
* Similar users
* Taste profile
* Stats, rankings, and comparisons
* Genre and mood analysis
When you leave titles unrated, SIMKL still knows you watched them — but it does not know **how you felt about them**. That creates blind spots in your profile.
For example:
* You might love a genre but never rated the shows
* You might hate a series but it still influences recommendations
* Your average score becomes misleading
**Rate Unrated** fixes this by making sure every completed title has a voice.
If you want SIMKL to understand you properly, this button is one of the most important tools on the entire site.
