Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview
About this plugin
Based on the famous plugin, “Hello Dolly” by Matt Mullenweg, “Hello HAL” (Heuristically programmed ALgorithmic Computer: HAL 9000) is a science fiction movie quotation plugin that displays random sci-fi movie quotes in the admin dashboard. The goal was to take the Hello Dolly plugin and have some fun with it. Each quote is followed by the speaking character’s name and the title of the film.
