we have an experimental page that hadn't been touched in 6 months, and was rock solid at #3 for widget services location for 6+ months.

it has a smallish block of text quoted from wiki, with 4 links from the wiki text to other wiki pages on it.

2 months ago I nofollowed the 4 wiki links to see what happened. ..on caching, the page immediately dropped 6 places and stayed there.

2 weeks later I removed the NFs again, and the page has crept slowly back up to #5 over the last 4 weeks.

this was the only change made to the page.
