Geoff: exactly. Seeing that you have comments is fairly good for journal
entries as you have the "Comments" right at the bottom of each post. It
is more difficult for other artefacts and most often not visible to
others than the author of the artefact.

>From the post on https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1036593:
At the moment I regard the artefact feedback given directly on the page for an artefact as the same feedback that you could provide if you go to the artefact page itself. It's just pretty much a quick view to avoid clicks and to make the feedback (at least short feedback / the latest feedback) more visible.

I should add a couple of notes for my quick mock-up:

1. You would only see the latest feedback (say up to 5) and then have a link which would take you to the artefact page to see all feedback.
2. Attachments aren't displayed, but just indicated and can be clicked.
3. Further feedback can be reached via the "read more" link.
4. I thought to cut very long feedback and provide a link to the rest to avoid much scrolling.
5. Your toggling brings up an idea: It could be a setting that a user can make for any pages (his own or others) that he views whether to show the feedback preview or not. The comments count would always be visible though.
6. Feedback ratings will of course also be displayed.

Title:
  Make comments / feedback directly on artefacts on the page

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  New

Bug description:
  The artefact metadata page which is usually accessible by clicking on
  the artefact is well hidden. It would be good if it were possible to
  directly comment on an artefact from a (portfolio) page through a
  little pop-up. A counter next to / below the artefact indicates how
  many comments the artefact has. When you hover over that number you
  can read the comments in a "bubble" without having to go to the
  details page of the artefact. You could still click on the artefact
  and view the details page and give longer feedback at the bottom of
  the page and also upload a file there. But for quick feedback, the
  possibility to leave it directly on the artefact on the page would be
  handy.
