Growing number of worksheets... Do you go though all of them?

Very interesting subject, and obviously a common problem.
 
1.  I only look at worksheets that have what I am looking for in the headline:  example:  Present Perfect.  I then look at the preview, if I see too many errors, I reject it.  One or two errors and attractive worksheet, I download. 
 
2.  I only download the worksheets that are needed for that days classes.  I know that tomorrow I will have an abundance of new worksheets.
 
3.  As soon as I have finished the lesson plans for that day, I stop.  I don �t have the time to continue to browse.
 
4.  If I am really in a hurry, I just go to the search engine and look that way.
 
5.  Is there any way that the worksheets could be sorted by categories?  That way, if you are looking for something for a 5 year old, you don �t have to wade through 600 worksheets.

As alien boy reminded, when you upload, there is this notice:
If nobody downloads your worksheets in a whole month, they will be automatically deleted.

But I have seen loads of wss old several months with no points and they are still here. So I think the mechanism isn �t working properly. Maybe we should spend some time looking for these wss and remove them? I don �t know what to do about it, but if these wss haven �t got any point for months they should be removed as the possibility someone will start to download them is 0.

Hi fellow teachers,

I have  seen many similar worksheets reappear in a slightly different version. With the enormous overload  a worksheet tends to be downloaded only the first day. Apparently this makes people upload the �same � worksheet again and again.

It �s a pity that worksheets need to be flashy in order to get noticed.
 
greetings from Greece
