Not sure if it's been posted, but it might be a good idea to implement some sort of algorithm that chooses what pasta you would be most likely to enjoy based on previous ratings of pastas (I think we should bring the star system back), keywords, and tags, where pastas with fewer comments and ratings have priority over more popular alternatives. I know we have three similar pasta recommendations after individual pastas, but a system tailored to the user might work better.

I really don't think it's a good idea to raise standards and delete more pastas. Not only does it antagonize a community of writers, it affects literary elitism, and that shouldn't be the image we put across. YouTube doesn't delete "bad" videos to popularize good ones, and I don't think we should either. We should reform the site, not just keep doing the wrong thing over and over, hoping it will eventually produce better results.
