Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikipedia Zero in Google search result

(cross-posted on mobile-l) Update: I have been checking on the indexed link count over the last couple of months, and it has been roughly constant. Upon another check in the past week, it looked like it was time to go ahead with the robots.txt update. Just yesterday, the start of a robots.txt en

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikipedia Zero in Google search result

(cross-posted on mobile-l) Okay, looks like the index of zero.wikipedia.org pages in Google has shrunk by some 20 million entries. Nonetheless, a number of really old pages (e.g., going back to 6-May-2013) are still in the Google index with article text. I'll set a reminder to check on the Google

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikipedia Zero in Google search result

All, My mistake. The pages in Google's index that I used for sampling - the ones that have "Sorry, ..." in their description in Google search results - are cached pages. I assumed incorrectly that those pages were based on recent indexing (e.g., in the past few days). I think we can actually stic

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikipedia Zero in Google search result

Hello All, We had shelved my patch, patch 64629 , in hopes that an earlier patch, patch 61809(bug 35233 ), would resolve the issue naturally as Google re-indexed. But i

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikipedia Zero in Google search result

As I mentioned on the bug report [1] I worry more about the fact that the content is not accessible to users on another IP. If a user of Wikipedia Zero shares a link do we not want that to be accessible to other people? By showing a message as we currently do "Sorry, zero.wikipedia.org is only supp

Adam Baso (copied on this email) is working on it and a fix is ready. He'll do some testing to make sure it's resolved. On Tue, May 28, 2013 at 10:22 AM, Tomasz Finc wrote: > Looping Dan Foy in who's managing the Zero backlog. > > On Mon, May 27, 2013 at 8:01 AM, MZMcBride wrote: > > K. Peachey

[Wikimedia-l] Wikipedia Zero in Google search result

Hi, I noticed that when I'm searching on Google, many Wikipedia results are in the form of lang-code.zero.wikipedia.org, perhaps just since a day or two ago. I'm not sure what items are indexed this way, but it would really be a trouble - there is no link on the page that jumps you to the stand
