We&#x27;re at an impasse, as I disagree the effort is negligible. (I think that it could be an enormous time-sink arguing over the relative scores of articles, as well as coming up and changing the criteria used to come up with those scores.) But neither of us have any data, so we can&#x27;t make any progress down that line of discussion.<p>To your last question, the argument I don&#x27;t see much discussion around is that editor time and effort is a limited resource; deleting articles is a way to manage that resource. So any solution that addresses this argument must not incur a large amount of editor time and effort.
