I'm sure bioshock was featured on the home page when Google indexed it. I don't have the URL handy, but there's a fairly lengthy video floating around in which Matt Cutts from Google explains how that piece of the Google search results is generated.

Bioshock is 382 articles, almost 1200 pages in the database. There are certainly more "major wikis" than that. I don't think it's as automatic as you say it is. How they would it would index Bioshock and keep it that way is beyond me. *shrugs*

There is no way to control this other than reworking the elemental structure of the page and waiting for Google to reindex the page and take another guess.

If you google Wikia, obviously Wikia.com comes up as the first results. However there are many sub-results under that.

My question is, and I never brought it up to anyone because I always forget, how are those put there or indexed that way? Some of those links are helpful, but Bioshock has been there forever too, seems to be getting a lot of publicity (not that it's a bad thing, but think of the other thousands of wikis). Does anyone know how these are chosen, and if so, how they can be changed? Perhaps we can add in an 8th one (maybe Entertainment Hub to compliment Gaming) and swap out Bioshock with another wiki and rotate every once and a while (every week?, every other week?, every month?)

Thoughts?
