In this case you would use an ordinary task with a ++1w repeater. Are you wanting to use habits just for the graph? Habits are different from tasks. It is "suggested" that you do them within a range of time, but it's not completion which is important, rather consistency over the long-run. Hence the graph to indicate your overall progress on the goal of being consistent. A weekly review, on the other hand, is something that you really should do every week, and if you miss it doesn't matter how well you've been doing in the past, a single missed week could throw you off considerably.
