See (info "(gnus)Setting Marks").  Especially `!' and `M-u':

,----[ (info "(gnus)Setting Marks") ]
| `M c'
| `M-u'
|      Clear all readedness-marks from the current article
|      (`gnus-summary-clear-mark-forward').  In other words, mark the

When I use `i mark' (lookup "mark" in the index) in the Gnus manual,
the first match is (info "(gnus)Marking Articles") which contains an
menu entry called "How to set and remove marks." pointing to the
appropriate node:

,----[ (info "(gnus)Marking Articles") ]
| * Setting Marks::               How to set and remove marks.
`----

If you tell us the keywords you (unsuccessfully) used to search in the
manual, we might be able to improve the manual.

Bye, Reiner.
