Google has sharply deranked this type of webpage. I used to run a similar kind of thing and I went from #2-3 to #100 something. (Which means that most of the time it won't come up at all anymore.) The results are absolutely packed with wikias, blogspam, and ebay type stuff. I really miss the old web. This type of content is great.
I obviously have no idea how Google works but I do wonder if it's because they don't index like they use to, so rich content can't be evaluated as such. For example, HN comment pages are typically in the "index", in that you can get them to turn up in a search, but you'll find that +"exact quote from comment" will return 0 results. It's as if Google doesn't care much what the page is actually about.
