If NOFOLLOW is set, search > engines wont find it. How search engines discovers our wiki pages: The FrontPage has links (<a> or <link>) to the page TitleIndex and RecentChanges. Those pages links to every other pages of the wiki Also, Moinmoin provides a sitemap[1] (see example [2]). I'll try to summarize how moinmoin uses NoFollow. All links inside the wiki are follow'able, except: * Alternative pages format (raw, docbook, print view) * Actions (edit, search...) Links leading outside the wiki are NOFOLLOW. AFAIK, "<a rel='NOFOLLOW'..>" is implemented on most/every CMS, Wiki, Blog... for public contributed links. That's the most effective way to discourage spammers[3]. > > > http://wiki.debian.org/robots.txt exists already, too. > > > > > FYI, This robots file is useful when used with a new moinmoin feature, > > that allow to write action URL as "/action/edit/PageName", rather than > > PageName?action=edit.
