I'll try to expand a little bit... - a thread has a "volume", probably word count. Meaning that 100% of a thread = all words, regardless of thread post count. - the thread post count gets used like a boolean fact of some sort: "thread contains more than x posts" yes/no, and has a low impact on the final balance. I'd say a 10th, maybe a 5th. - keywords, bad and good, can be sentences as you can see. "thanks for sharing" typically means additional value for the thread. how much depends on the word count of the thread. This is still to determine, when implementing the actual rules (these are only the facts of the facts/knowledge base), but the keyword added value is either general, in which case you get a global impact on the thread worth, or associated to a forum, in which case you get a "likeliness to belong to that forum" AND added value on a global scale. - good posters appearances, again, should be used as a fraction of the thread post count, and should add to the global value, again, as well to the "relevance to this or that forum" factor. This is a rough draft of the next, most tedious part of the project: setting and tuning the rules. So, to answer your question, a small thread's relevance would be treated like a big thread, one single post of a goodposter would highly impact it's value (and relevance to topics), and since one single intense posts contains more words, it is more likely to contain keywords. If your thread is that intense and the rules are finely balanced, it would just be kept. .... Hell, I think that when the autobot goes live, it should first just hint at a classification, then, later on, classify, but leave out unclassified entries, leave them in the sink, those that do not seem relevant. It shouldn't be doing a straightforward job of massacrating randomly, but should leverage the real mod's task by 90% by reducing the archival load appropriately and ONLY WHEN IT IS REALLY SURE IT'S DOING A GOOD JOB. But we should be there quite soon already. Loading...
