Well, Peter, it's got over 2,000 in-bound links, from user and user talk pages: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2011-08-01/In_the_news We should really look at making such links nofollow; only mainspace links should be dofollow, and that should exclude nav templates and the like.
