If you’ve got an entry that’s not being scored in the manner you
expect, you can ask elfeed-score to explain itself by selecting the
offending entry & invoking elfeed-score-scoring-explain-entry
(= x):
Explain an Elfeed ENTRY.
This function will apply all scoring rules to an entry, but will not change anything (e.g. update the entry’s meta-data, or the last-matched timestamp in the matching rules); instead, it will provide a human-readable description of what would happen if the entry were to be scored, presumably for purposes of debugging or understanding of scoring rules.
