Thanks for the PR!
This looks interesting and the change makes sense to me. My main question is whether we really need the argument - do we not want to count the plaintext links for all _getLinkDensity callers? If not, why not? :-)

Let's maybe cache the return of getInnerText which may not be cheap for large nodes, given we now potentially reuse it further down?

Oh, and one minor thing - can we strip scripts from the input HTML to avoid accidentally running them when checking testcases? Thank you! (if the generate testcase script doesn't do this, it wouldn't hurt to change that... though obviously that's a separate problem) |

This fixes issue - #1016
It seems like the issue is in the scoring algorithm. The end links are scored higher than the article content causing it to take precedence. I updated
_getLinkDensity()to consider urls not wrapped in<a>tags as well. Added the source as a test case
