Globalwarming Awareness2007 is a SEO contest aimed at drawing public support for global warming. Not to mention offers a couple of good prizes like a brand new car. That’s all fine and dandy except for one thing a wikipedia page is showing in the results for the term, “globalwarming awareness2007″, as if it’s a contestant.
It seems Google Blogoscopped’s concerns about results from the contest spilling over to the actual global warming keywords may be coming true. If original pages like the wikipedia global warming page are getting sucked into the contest’s results this may go the other way. The wikipedia page has no words even resembling the weird contest keywords. Even the cache for the page proves this true yet it shows up.
This is probably due to some user trying to spam the page with their link trying to get a higher rank in the SEO contest which prompted wikipedia to nofollow every outside link. But it may not be. Either way the cache page shows that Yahoo could have figured that the page has nothing to do with that query.
