I'm not eager of linking one such "SEO consultant" site here, which would add to their SEO; where should I put the link in your opinion? > and that the bots that do so add spam not trivially combated by other > anti-spam tools. Does this matter, if such tools are not on the wikis in question? We're speaking of defaults here, so ideally you should consider only core tools (or at most bundled extensions' defaults, but upgrading MediaWiki doesn't automatically bring all bundled extensions). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
