Determine best way to allow backlinks to partners to create value, without making d.o a backlink spam vector
I **think** the current no-follow insertion for external links happens as part of a text-format filter? If I'm correct on that: - We could add a different filtered HTML text format that doesn't do no-follow insertion on certain 'safe' content types that can't be created by random users - (is the 'post' type safe in that way?) - (Bad idea): We could create an allow-list that's generated from org profiles - this would only matter at the moment the content is created, so it would go stale - plus it's an unnecessarily complex mechanism - A CKEditor link widget for certain roles that's allowed to bypass the filter? (I don't think that works with the way text formats work) - ... other thoughts?
