1. A method comprising:
- determining, using one or more processors and based on a search query, articles and respective scores for the articles;
identifying, using one or more processors and for an article of the articles, a source with which the article is associated;
determining, using one or more processors, whether a score for the source exists;
obtaining, using one or more processors, the score for the source when the score for the source exists,the score for the source being determined based on one or more metrics for the source,the one or more metrics including a metric relating to an evaluation, by one or more users, of the source, andthe one or more metrics for the source being identified from a plurality of metrics for the source; and
adjusting, using one or more processors, the score for the article based on the score for the source.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions, the instructions comprising:
-
one or more instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to determine a score for an article based on a search query; one or more instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to identify a source with which the article is associated; one or more instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to determine that a value for the source exists; one or more instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to obtain the value for the source based on determining that the value for the source exists, the value for the source being determined based on one or more metrics for the source, the one or more metrics for the source being identified from a plurality of metrics for the source, the one or more metrics including a metric relating to an evaluation, by one or more users, of the source; and one or more instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to adjust the score for the article based on the value for the source. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A system comprising:
one or more processors to; identify an article based on a search query; identify a source with which the article is associated; determine that a value for the source exists; obtain the value for the source based on determining that the value for the source exists, the value for the source being determined based on one or more metrics for the source, the one or more metrics including a metric relating to an evaluation, by one or more users, of the source, and the one or more metrics for the source being selected from a plurality of metrics for the source; and determine a score for the article based on the value for the source. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
