:::Firstly, [[wikiFactor]] was specifically 'created' for the sole purpose of reporting specific page views on a a wiki site, and wikiFactor uses the same Hirsch-index of grading views of profession journal articles for published authors. To change this now would jeopardise the integrity of our wikiFactor. | :::Firstly, [[wikiFactor]] was specifically 'created' for the sole purpose of reporting specific page views on a a wiki site, and wikiFactor uses the same Hirsch-index of grading views of profession [[:Category:Journal|journal]] articles for published authors.

:::The [[Special:WhatLinksHere]] feature, called '[[backlink]]s' in the non-MediaWiki world, is great on encyclopaedic sites such as Wikipedia - where they strive to actively achieve a number of backlinks. However, the vast majority of wiki sites (even Wikivoyage) do NOT seek to chase backlink importance. Indeed, this WikiIndex site has many articles which have zero backlinks (called 'orphan' in MediaWiki speak), yet WikiIndex is no worse for not chasing high backlink figures! | :::The [[Special:WhatLinksHere]] feature, called '[[backlink]]s' in the non-MediaWiki world, is great on encyclopaedic sites such as Wikipedia - where they strive to actively achieve a number of backlinks.

:::::::: Hm, do you remember who these users were? Or how the bot software they used was called? If no, I recently joined some wiki with some guys who might know.--[[User:Max Sinister|Max Sinister]] ([[User talk:Max Sinister|talk]]) 22:19, 16 November 2022 (UTC) | |||
