I'm empathetic with that sentiment (I mainly write in Japanese), but the HN-based scoring wouldn't work with the HN-based scoring. I'd rather have a separate list for each language, based on some other scoring say, # of tweets.
I'm not convinced of the interest of the hackernews score (it links too much blogs to tech), and I don't find that sharing articles on twitter is really relevant (people don't click on links on twitter, the information is held on the platform).
