All The Tropes:Weirdest Inbound Link of the Day
With the implementation of Matomo Analytics for All The Tropes in late August 2018, it once again becomes possible to track, albeit broadly and crudely, links from other sites into the wiki.[1] This page is for bringing anything odd, unusual or amusing among those links to the attention of the wiki community. Please add new entries below the banner and above the previous entries.
Weirdest Inbound Links
2018 September 24
- Four days later, and El Reg is now our largest inbound referrer, with almost a hundred links. Someone find the article and what it links to!
2018 September 20
- Snarky IT news site The Register has suddenly popped up with more than a dozen inbound links.
- Gaming wiki 1d4chan's page on TV Tropes links to us as its "most notable fork"; they are our third largest referrer, after AOL and Reddit.
2018 September 18
- Still getting inbound links from TV Tropes.
- explain xkcd knows who we are; their page Urgent Mission links to our pages Robot War and For Want of a Nail. This one's more "amusing" than "weird".
- We've also been getting multiple inbounds from The Guardian, although we can't tell yet from where or to where.
2018 August 26
- Confounding all our prejudices and expectations, we have multiple inbound links from TV Tropes of all places! Isn't it still an autoban to even hint that we exist there?
- ↑ Given the actual power of Matomo Analytics as described at their home page, we should be able to get more info and finer detail, but at the moment that's not available to us.
