Abstract

On one or more data processing systems, a collection rating is determined for a rating scale for contents of a document collection. A link rating is determined for the rating scale for contents linked to or linked by contents of the document collection. The collection rating for the rating scale for contents of the document collection is then modified, based on the determined link rating for the rating scale for contents linked to or linked by contents of the document collection.
