Calibre ratings
Is it possible to remove the ratings box from the calibre interface?
When I add a new book it always shows 5 stars for most books. I do not want any ratings and have to keep changing it. Can I remove the box somehow or set it to none permanently? |

More likely, and what theducks was referring to, is that it is being populated when you download metadata for the books. At the bottom of the metadata editor, is the "Download metadata" button. On the right of this, is a button to configure the metadata download. If you click this, the "Configure Metadata download" dialog is shown. The right-hands side has a list of the metadata element that can be downloaded. Uncheck any that you don't want. On the left-hand side is a list of the metadata sources you have installed. The ones with a check are enabled. You can configure each to choose which metadata elements they will be download. |

What David said
You can CLEAR inherited (from the book or previous downloads) by selecting books with ratings ( Ues Tag browser): Select All: Tap 'E' for Bulk Metadata edit: Not Rated ( remember to tick the apply rating box) You can control which fields appear in Book Details (Pane) (see note on the right) Preferences: Look and Feel: Book Details: |

@Jo69 - you could just hide the Ratings in the Book List, Book Details and Tag Browser viz:
Then if you change you mind, you can un-hide the column and the data will be there. As you can see from the first two images a lot of functionality is available in the right click menu's. BR |

To remove the ratings column from the list, right click on the column heading and select the hide option. This is BetterRed's first screenshot. Quote:
