Thanks for your comment! A combination of consistency in time plus high quality reminds me of some StackOverflow badges (like the "curious" ones I never got, as most of my questions got deleted as offtopic or attracting opionionated answers). Might be a good idea, while nothing for the mass and the aspiring newcomers.

But "top of the week" etc. still seems the best way to measure some sort of quality at least. Maybe they should consider reading time as well, so that just clicking on a spammy headline without at least scrolling halfway through the article content would not count as a view.
