==Unsubstatiated and later on false claim of Wikimedia withholding valuable link transit data in favor of commercial interests of Bomis== | |||
*'''False Claim:''' withholding of information regarding [[link transit]] at [[Wikipedia]] which would be very useful to editors, but also quite profitable for a [[search engine]] like Bomis; several attempts to raise this issue have been suppressed; in September 2004 [[User:TimStarling]] did some code to start to deal with it. | |||
===Motivation for critiqued practice=== | |||
No one has requested this information. It is not analysed by Wikimedia or anyone else (eg. Bomis) currently according to several (unnamed per request) [[MediaWiki]] developers with shell access to all machines. | |||
Also Read [[link transit]]. Where [[User:TimStarling]] has come up with some code to implement part of the functionality that the false claim states to be in the posession and use of Wikimedia or Bomis. | |||
===Resolution to being a false claim=== | |||
See above motivation and [[link transit]]. It seems likely that this information will soon be made available to all interested parties | |||
