[Pmwiki-users] Searching for information about PmWiki

[bram brambring zonnet]

Hi,

what about using site:www.pmichaud.com as part of your google query:

http://www.google.com/search?num=20&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8&q=mailposts+
pmwiki+site%3Awww.pmichaud.com+-action

I exclude the keyword action as well, I wrote an mail earlier about the
robot and action stuff.

Or did I completely mis the point?

I modified my robots.txt to exclude the pmwiki documents:

DisAllow: /wiki/PmWiki

Hi

I was just trying to find information about something in PmWiki (rather
than directly ask on the mail list). The problem was that since the words
I searched for appears on one page in the group PmWiki, I get a *lot* of
identical hits...

In this case, I'd already read the relevant page (PmWiki/MailPosts), does
anyone have any idea how to get around this?

One thought is to by default forbid search robots from indexing the
standard pages in the PmWiki group (preferably only pages stored in
wikilib.d, so that locally modified pages - or new pages - will still be
indexed).

/Christian

PS. Here's the search I tried:


http://www.google.com/search?q=mailposts+pmwiki&btnG=Google+Search&hl=en&lr=
&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8

and here are some other searches.. maybe they'll inspire someone:

N:o hits  Searching for:				Comment:
2340	mailposts pmwiki				Plain search
378	mailposts pmwiki -action=			Remove cruft
200	mailposts pmwiki -action= -"PmWiki.MailPosts"	(1)


(1) This might be overly restrictive, since any page referring to
PmWiki.MailPosts will be discarded.
