"Top all-time" should be called "Most mentioned" and it should display the mentions stat followed by the recommends stat

"Most recommended" can stay as it is

and then a new "Top all-time" should be a weighted sum of recommendations plus mentions with recommendations getting a higher weight (obviously) … l33t c0d1ng sk1llz for deducting negative mentions (as in "awful book", "do not recommend" etc)!
