Criterias for a 'Popular Model' Feature

@Tanklet
Can you provide some insights on how ‘Popular Models’ are determined? There must be significant factors beyond quantitative metrics like downloads, prints, likes, and collections, right?

Hi, thanks for asking. If you are referring to the selection of featured models, please take a look at our Featured Model Guideline: Featured Model Guidelines
If you are referring to other models being selected, please let us know.

I was talking about these on the front page:

These models come from a pool suggested by our system whereas our operation team selects the final popular models. Deciding factors for these models range from popularity, creativity and printability to whether the model incorporates features such as MakerLab or BOM lists.
