Classic Elo: A user visits a page and is shown a picture of two different types of Halloween candy. The user clicks the candy they like better. You run "win/loss" Elo on the candy matchups and rank the candies by their Elo rating.
FiveThirtyEight did that here

Margin-dependent Elo: A user visits a page and is shown a picture of two different types of Halloween candy. The user moves a sliding bar, say from -10 to 10, to indicate which candy they prefer. I can then run margin-dependent Elo rankings on those candy matchups and rank the candies by different moments of their Elo rating distributions.
