Indeed, the documentation for scoring in summary buffer could be clearer. I found it disencouraging because I didn't even see why I would want to score an article anyway. Of course, there are subjects and authors that interest me more than others, but exactly what would scoring an article help? I have read some article and likely won't read it again :) I would be glad if someone would be so kind and explain to me, why I would want to score articles after all, so I can start again reading the documentation :) -- Nils Gösche My obscure opinions are my very own.
