Description SatyrTN 2007-07-20 04:34:54 UTC 
The 'article' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_gay%2C_lesbian_or_bisexual_people/To_be_sorted is actually a list of articles that WP:LGBT studies has been using to verify and source all LGBT people on Wikipedia.  As such, it's really a work list, not an article.

If at all possible, could that page be added to the robots.txt file so that random searching won't turn it up?

Thanks!

Why don't you try using the new magic word? {{NOINDEX}} on enwp.

robots.txt can now be edited on-wiki by editing Mediawiki:robots.txt => closing this bug
