Wikipedia links are nofollow. Here's why brands still want them.
Some sellers will tell you a Wikipedia link passes PageRank. It doesn't. The real value lies elsewhere, and in the AI-search era it's bigger than one dofollow link.

- ✓Entity & Knowledge Graph signalsBeing cited alongside a topic helps Google connect your brand to it.
- ✓Qualified referral trafficReaders who click a citation are actively researching your topic.
- ✓A trust signal for every link you buildYour site looks like a real source, not just another link target.
Why most Wikipedia links disappear
Wikipedia editors remove promotional edits quickly. Links that last share three traits:
- They fix a real problem (dead link, missing source)
- The cited page genuinely supports the sentence
- The edit is disclosed, not hidden
- They're placed by experienced editors
- They don't come from new or fake accounts

Wikipedia citation questions
Are Wikipedia backlinks dofollow?
No. All external links on Wikipedia are nofollow. Their value is trust, entity association, qualified referral traffic and visibility to AI assistants that rely heavily on Wikipedia. Any seller who says otherwise is misleading you.
Is paying for Wikipedia edits allowed?
Paid contributions are allowed when they're disclosed, as Wikimedia's Terms of Use require. Undisclosed paid editing breaks those terms, which is why we disclose every paid edit and never use fake accounts.
Will my citation stay up forever?
Nobody can guarantee that. Wikipedia is edited by its community. Citations that fix a real problem and genuinely support the text tend to last, which is why we only place those. Removals within 30 days are covered by our replacement guarantee.
Can you create a Wikipedia page for my company?
Only if your company meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines, which means significant coverage in independent, reliable sources. Most businesses don't qualify yet. The Entity Authority Pack includes an honest notability assessment, and we'll tell you plainly if you're not there.
