   So far, I've updated hubs that have gone un-featured, which re-features them again.I try to make them more interesting, change the title, spruce them up here and there and promote them elsewhere. However, I'm gradually starting to delete the worst of the non-performing hubs. I can always re-work them and post elsewhere or maybe work them into one of my blogs.

   I am in the process of improving my hubs as well. I plan to keep them all unless some of them do not improve as far as traffic goes.

   Right now all of mine are featured. I did have 4 that were not featured after the new QAP. They were recipes and I moved them to the recipe template and they are fine now.
   
   If I could not get a hub refeatured with some tweaking, I would likely delete it and try something else.

      I'm not sure it's worth it to retweak anymore just to keep the H badge. If the hub is bringing in a significant number of views, perhaps it's better to remove it. I wonder, though, if others have had low-view hubs go viral after several months?

   I have two hubs that aren't featured, but they are my earliest and very rough. I keep them for now, in hopes I can edit them and turn them into better hubs. I may end up deleting them if I don't get around to it. Since it's just two, I figure it can wait.

   No, I deleted one because it was a poem. I've unpublished a few and hopefully will get to those later, or I will revamp them and put them on a different site. Hubpages is leaning towards a genre of professionalism, study and how to's. It also pushes you towards a particular niche or expertise.

   I've gone back and re-worked ones that I felt needed it, and probably prevented them from losing that status.  I had a few not featured, but with changes I was able to push them back to featured.

   I have deleted  over thirty of my hubs, and worked on the rest so most now featured and with continuous updating of the hubs it can improve your traffic

   I keep them when I unpublished the non featured low scoring hubs so one day  I'll fix them better but never throw away.
