    Hi, My article (WCF: Duplex MSMQ[^]) doesn't appear on the front page, even though I have good rating (Latest best picks). Is it a bug or I need to do something, or my article is not well enough ? :confused: Thanks for your response, Nico,

      Your article's rating is 4.52. The articles on the homepage have ratings 4.65 and above, so your article misses out by a whisker.

        My rating is 5. Do you mean that it is the popularity which decide if we are on the home page ?

          Chris, the rating is 5.0, with 8 votes. It was the same story with Nicolas' first IDispatch article. I believe it should have been in the best picks also. A glitch in the matrix?

            I wonder if it is because it was moved shortly after publishing that it doesn't appear in the Best Picks.

                In a way you are lucky it did not show up there. If you show up in the top-5 list on the front page, you automatically attract 3-voters :-)

                  And my popularity is also high enough.

                      Nicolas is talking about the Latest Best Picks box. As far as I can tell, rating is what matters there. It's sorted by rating. For example, an article with a single rating of 5 will appear before an article with a lower rating regardless of popularity. Nicolas' article should appear there. It was posted on 30 August 2009. It has a rating of 4.93, a popularity of 5.32, and 12 votes. The article was moved by an editor shortly after publishing.
