Changes:
No comments link/button on article pages (except for last page)
Moved rating to last page (makes sense with the comment move).
Last page previews first 5 comments with a link to read the rest of the comments. In a way... I like this a lot better. I feel that with only a 5 post preview of comments, you will get people that will keep their comments related to the article instead of the other comments. If there are no comments previewed, they may be more apt to read all the comments before posting.

Actually... who knows? there are pros and cons.

Just tell me what you think.

You nailed it

At first I was hesitant towards having no comments on page 1, but looking at your preview it gives so much more focus to the article (and the fact that there's more than 1 page).

To notify people that the article contains more pages, it might be an improvement when the 'page x of y' info IN the article table (see attachment).
