Description Ral315 2006-03-24 05:54:59 UTC 
Request for Wikinews to add all subpages of "wiki/Portal:Prepared_stories/" to
robots.txt.  The reason is that sub-pages there contain prepared obituaries and
other stories that have not happened yet, which would be unsuitable to find in a
Google search.  They have big templates that say they're just prepared stories,
but it wouldn't hurt to add it here as well.
Comment 1 Chiacomo 2006-03-24 06:01:46 UTC 
This would be helpful. Thanks for bringing it up, Ral315.
Comment 2 Amgine 2006-03-24 06:06:37 UTC 
I think you mean to add them so they are not spidered, correct? If so I concur.
(Hadn't even thought of that, very good idea Ral315.) It might also explain some
of the odd vandalism to the Jimmy Carter or Ford articles...
Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2006-03-30 03:32:57 UTC 
Done.
