As you may know, Wikipedia has a PageRank of 8 which is really high. Many people is hoping to get a link from a high PR site, as it has positive effect on a site's PR for getting such link. Since Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia that allows everyone to edit it, many webmasters have a habit or eager to try to post their links in the relevant topics in Wikipedia.
However, is it really useful, no matter in terms of getting a higher PR, or getting a better crawling by search engines' spiders, to post links in Wikipedia?
The answer is NO. Pretty bad, right? It is because all the external links in Wikipedia has "No Follow" attribute. That means Google's spider will not follow the link and enter the site of yours. Apart from that, the editors from Wikipedia will also delete the links you posted, due to self-promotion reason.
As a result, don't waste your time to paste your link in the Wikipedia now, since it is pointless to do so. Spend your time properly on the web directories (Some directories can also have a high PR as well.)
