Forum:Remove "nofollow" tags from a particular wiki?

Is it possible to remove all "nofollow" tags from a particular wiki?

I am the only admin at the wiki I work on. I noticed the "nofollow" tags today while looking at the HTML for a page. So I guess Wikia's MediaWiki software is following the Wikipedia model.

Offtopic spam links on my wiki get deleted in a day or 2, and so the "nofollow" links are unneeded. Unlike on Wikipedia where there are so many pages that people can frequently slip in offtopic, or only slightly ontopic, spam links.

I can understand the need for "nofollow" tags on Wikipedia, but they serve no purpose on my wiki. They actually hinder the purpose of my wiki.

There are hundreds of city pages whose purpose is to put out as much info, and as many useful links as possible concerning the topic of this wiki. "Nofollow" links discourage this. They also discourage mutual interlinking help in getting all our network of pages higher up in Google searches. --Timeshifter 15:59, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
