Yes, yes, yes. Wikipedia links is the bread and butter - it is still one of the keys to outrank your competitors in every highly competitive market there is. I think you shouldn't post this link from your own established profile don't be a child
and hide your IP.sanjanasingh17

Yes that is very high-level domain metrics and good reputation for any search engine.

additionally, wikipedia is continually scraped and recreated as content on other sites, so you start to get links from all over

Why would anyone hide his ip if you edit wikipedia. lolYes, yes, yes.

I've been contributing to the Wikipedia since ages and none of my links ever got removed.
And just in case u missed it....this thread was all about ranking for the same keyword...not for ranking in competitive markets.

Just a hint from the days of MFA sites....Ugly or useless sites encourage the user to click NEXT. Leave your link but make the article worthless. Your link will stay, but visitors will be more likely to click BACK to the results and choose #2, Just like a garbage site USED to encourage Ad clicks.

exactly, it can only help you. We're talking about a wikipedia link here!
There's a service in the BST section selling it for $119 a link if I remember..

If you are a reputable contributor, they won't get removed.
Or you can restore dead links.
Search google "your keyword" "dead link" site:wikipedia.org
Then find the dead link in the article.
1- If you already have an article which is suitable to the dead link, replace the dead link with your content's link.
2- If you don't have, write a decent content and replace the dead link with your newly written article's link.
It will most likely stay.
