	The '''noindex''' value of an HTML robots meta tag requests that automated Internet bots avoid indexing a web page. MediaWiki applies noindex to special pages by default. Other pages can be designated as noindex as well, depending on [[mw:Manual:$wgExemptFromUserRobotsControl\|the configuration]]. [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] does not apply noindex to its edit pages and diffs; therefore, raw wikitext could theoretically show up in search engine results, and old revisions do indeed sometimes show up in search results.
