English: Screenshot of the foot of Wikivoyage' Shanghai article, illustrating that most of Wikivoyage's pages still carry the legally unnecessary HTML hyperlink to Wikitravel's main page (at the foot of each article) which boosts Wikitravel's Search Engine organic results.

If this wasn't bad enough, at the foot of most of Wikivoyage guides there is also still another legally unnecessary HTML hyperlink to a Wikitravel article with a similar title to Wikivoyage's.

However, the legally required attribution is now defective in there being a defective (ie red) link at the foot of most of Wikivoyage's articles to its history page which ever so slightly saps Wikivoyage's own Search Engine organic results.

When you add to this the fact that Wikivoyage's preserves a less than optimal article naming scheme and almost all of the old H2 section titles used at the site Wikivoyage forked from, it's no wonder that most important search engines still regard Wikivoyage as an inferior johnny-come-lately imitation of Wikitravel and assign Wikivoyage a dupe penalty!
