This looks great.

Yepp, I too don't think that this is needed.

BTW: How about an (additional) enhanced function which limits to
articles with a score within %small and %big (we need to ask the user
for %small and %big of course.)

One more thought: I heard several reports that people don't understand
from the name what Mark limit actually does. I too think that the name
could be improved.

How about "Filter articles" instead of "Mark limit"?
