With the above example, if seems quite straight forward, i.e. just check the '''amount''' ("how often") of occurrences and derive a weight based on that. Alas things are not as simple as they seem. For some categories it makes more sense to be interpret them by the '''worst case''', e.g. {{Cat|Violence}} is weighted by the most violent act in the anime, not by the amount of violence. A few other categories are pretty much an '''on/off''' switch, either they are applicable (vote: ''***'') or not at all, e.g.: Was the anime based on a {{Cat|Novel}} or wasn't it? | With the above example, if seems quite straight forward, i.e. just check the '''amount''' ("how often") of occurrences and derive a weight based on that.
