Migrated from: ​https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/23335

Currently, there's some fuzzy logic while sorting plugins and themes. Sorting by popularity seems to be reset I'm guessing on every major WP version update, which I guess is fair, in which case the problem is just missing the proper description of the sort option.

However, while sorting by rating, nothing really makes sense of the bizarre sort order there. ( ​Top Rated Themes )

Even while searching for a keyword, and sorting by "rating," the ​bizarre sorting ensues.

WordPress.org should be a shining example of what WordPress can do, and nail it.
