Description Khaled El Mansoury 2011-10-29 21:41:02 UTC
?title=User_talk:Username&lqt_method=talkpage_history are indexed by search engines unlike normal "View History" pages where there is a <meta name=robots content=noindex,nofollow> present in the HTML code.
Comment 1 Daniel Friesen 2011-11-02 17:34:50 UTC
This has no reason to be marked critical. To be frank, even though the robots entry isn't there the major wikis using LQT still don't get that indexed because they're blocked off by robots.txt.

It's a small bug, but it's not very important compared to other LQT bugs. And it's probably pretty trivial for some random dev to fix.
