Although you can score articles differently based on these marks...

(setq gnus-default-adaptive-score-alist
      '((gnus-del-mark (subject -1))
        (gnus-read-mark (from 1) (subject 3))))

In this example, articles that you mark with `d' will end up having
the score for its subject lowered by 1.  And any article that you
actually read will have the score for the author increased by 1 and
the subject increased by 3.

Obviously for this to work you need to be using "adaptive scoring".
