[ (info "(gnus)Read Articles") ]

This is the mark used when you kill an article or thread:

,----[ (info "(gnus)Setting Marks") ]
| `M k'
| `k'
|      Mark all articles that have the same subject as the current one
|      as read, and then select the next unread article
|      (`gnus-summary-kill-same-subject-and-select').
`----

If you don't use adaptive scoring, there's no difference to mark the
article read using `d', I think.  If you use adaptive scoring it will
create corresponding score entries, see gnus-killed-mark in (info
"(gnus)Adaptive Scoring").

Bye, Reiner.
