- yorwba 9y agoI believe your parent comment censored censored the link to avoid boosting the site's page rank. You may want to edit your comment (or not).
- spraak 9y agoCan you explain what that means/what happens?
- nerdponx 9y agoSearch engines rank sites (in part) according to the number of other sites that link to them. Wikipedia is ranked very highly in Google largely because many, many sites link to Wikipedia. The PageRank algorithm to compute these kinds of rankings was one of Google's early innovations, and was the secret to its initial dominance over the early-2000s search engine market.
- colinbartlett 9y agoBut the links all have rel="nofollow"
- nfriedly 9y agoFWIW, it looks like HN now adds rel="nofollow" to links in comments. So, it shouldn't matter either way.
- c8g 9y agoconfused. it is just a funny website.
