...should I just use <meta name="robots" content="noindex"> tag on paginated urls?

can In interrupt for a second here to make sure we are talkiing about the same thing?

When you say "paginated," you mean something like:

widgets-A-through-F.html
widgets-G-through-L.html
widgets-M-through-S.html
widgets-T-through-Z.html

Right?

Or are you saying:

all-widgets-sorted-by-price.html
all-widgets-sorted-by-most-popular.html
all-widgets-sorted-by-manufacturer.html

Thanks in advance for the clarification.
