There's also the possibility of using the `display' group parameter
with a `tick' predicate. However, this wouldn't be very efficient,
since Gnus tests this expression on individual headers after fetching
them, despite a list of ticked articles being already in memory.

I wonder if `Y t' would be a good candidate for No Gnus.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun gnus-summary-insert-ticked-articles ()
  "Insert ticked articles for this group into the current buffer."
  (interactive)
  (let ((gnus-verbose (max 6 gnus-verbose)))
    (if (not gnus-newsgroup-marked)
        (gnus-message 3 "No ticked articles for this group")
      (gnus-summary-goto-subjects gnus-newsgroup-marked))))

(eval-after-load 'gnus-sum
  '(define-key gnus-summary-mode-map (kbd "Y t")
     'gnus-summary-insert-ticked-articles))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
