[pydotorg-www] Pakt Publishing using wiki for SEO

[M.-A. Lemburg]

I don't know if you are aware, but Pakt has been publishing (apparently)
their complete list of Python books on the wiki, adding new titles
to the top of the page in an apparently automated way:

https://wiki.python.org/moin/AdvancedBooks
https://wiki.python.org/moin/AdvancedBooks?action=info

Not only that, but they removed older entries from the page:

https://wiki.python.org/moin/AdvancedBooks?action=info&max_count=100&offset=200

e.g. the Python Cookbook is no longer listed.

I don't think the purpose of the wiki should be SEO and even less
removing competitor links.

I think we should take action here, e.g. restore the old version of
the page and add a single link to the Pakt website instead of
the current endless list of entries.

Thoughts ?
