::Even with Wikipedia's "nofollow" effrontery, it is still helpful to link FROM there TO here, but only if you're actually doing so to assist Wikipedia users to find more helpful, authoritative information, and you are not doing it to boost your own ego or profit margins. Don't worry, others who hold power on Wikipedia will decide for you what your motives are. If you disagree with their decision, you may be blocked for daring to hold such an opinion.

::As a note, MyWikiBiz has about [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:LinkSearch&target=%2A.mywikibiz.com 40 links to it] from Wikipedia article and talk space. From these links, we garner about 4 or 5 "hits" per day. Nothing to break a sweat over. -- [[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 18:45, 4 January 2009 (PST)

:::Oh well. On a positive note [http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=siger+de+courtrai&meta= this search] brings in Siger at #3 on Google, above the The Cambridge History of Medieval Philosophy. Ulrich of Strasbourg comes #3 also. It is also interesting to compare the Wikipedia version of '[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Interpretatione On Interpretation]' with the [http://mywikibiz.com/On_Interpretation MWB version]. Notice the MWB is complete, the Wikipedia is not. This is not because anything was deleted from the Wikipedia version, but because the author of that article was banned for a period from Wikipedia and completed the article on MWB instead.
::: Which is rather unfair because when you Google [http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=%22Of+contradictory+propositions+about+the+past,+one+must+be+true,+the+other+false%22&hl=en a phrase from both versions] it comes 3rd after Wikipedia and a scraper, and to add insult to injury, it comes the omitted portion of "in order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 2 already displayed!". Yet if you Google a phrase [http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=%22Aristotle+enumerates+the+affirmations+and+denials+that+can+be+assigned+%22&meta= only in the MWB] it is #1 of 1, naturally.
