About this...

Popularity needs more factors to be useful, so base a listing's popularity on weighted criteria, similar to user contribution.

I'd like to see popularity factor in more statistics, similar to how user contribution is determined. For example, there are 15 weighted criteria for determining a user's contribution. You can adjust the weights, just take a look at the [lookup_contribution] table.

So what criteria would make something popular?
