No, the alternate groups are the whole point of the report card!  How
could I delete them?  I wanted to compare the success and popularity
of groups created in the guidelines way with groups created in alternate
ways.

I think our goal in choosing a group creation mechanism is to pick groups
which will be used and appreciated by the readers (not the posters) of
the net.   The report card provides statistics on how we have done compared
to other creation mechanisms.
