I'm not sure if it's already mentioned, but the downside of using this technique is the DOM being altered after the first draw. Another way to tackle this is setting display: none on the nth element using css. So eg:

.a.article-list-link:nth-child(n+5) {
   display: none;
}

This piece of code adds "display: none;" to the 5th element and up. That way the DOM is rendered correctly at once!

EDIT: I just noticed that the comment above me already provided this answer. I will keep this one just so that people will notice.
