How to fix Digg

Digg does a lot things right that bigger sites wouldn't do or just take a long time to figure out. That said Digg has some flaws that need to be fixed to stop people from abusing the system it has set in place (as shown in this article) so that every story has an equal chance to get on the front page. Some of these are my ideas while the rest I got from others.

1. Limit friends to 10 - This is to stop the practice where users just randomly friend others so that they can create groups where people just Digg each others stories, regardless of whether they are interested or not. Its called "friends" for a reason and honestly most people do not actually know more than 10 people on Digg.
2. Fan diggs count less than those of non fans - This will put the stories submited by popular users like MrBabyMan, on more even ground with those submited by other users.
   
3. Make entering the story title optional in Step 1 - This way people can save time from submitting a story that's already on Digg from a different source. This will save people the time of typing a description and entering the captcha (that thing that tests if you are human or not). More importantly it consolidates diggs into one story from one source.
4. Burying should be transparent - You should be able see who burried a story, that way everyone can know who is responsible for a story disapearing. Burys should also not count more than diggs, if there is somthing wrong with a story the comuity as a whole should be trusted to stop it.
   
5. Political Stories can not be buried - No topic on Digg is more divisive than politics (ok, maybe Apple vs. MS). Many (not all) Conservatives and Liberals hate to see any story that go against what they believe or cast a bad light on who they like no matter how valid or true it is. They will unjustly bury such stories just to suppress them. That's why political stories should have their own system to be removed, where if enough users have a problem with a story it is impeached and an unbiased person from Digg decides whether the acusations made agaisnt it are vaild and should be removed.
6. Let users subjest changes to a submison - If a user can think of a better tittle or picture to use let them subjest it and have it voted on by other users. The submiter should have veto power to stop abuse of such a feature. I know this would hard to implament but would be great to have.
