See here pushing the structure and changes of wikka to google could be an interesting (optional) feature. --NilsLindenberg
Apparently Google uses **URLs** to deduce the structure of your site in order to crawl it more efficiently (if it uses the information at all, which is not guaranteed); but our URLs inherently do not map to any structure (that's because a wiki essentially is a network, not a hierarchy). The only case I could see where it might possibly help is with orphan pages - in other words pages that are not linked to from any other page - so Google can find them; but then again, if you have a link to to an orphan pages page somewhere and you don't tell Google to **not** follow the links on that page, Google can find orphan pages as well. So I don't really see how this could actually help, given the "lack of structure" of a wiki. --JavaWoman
