As always, please watch [twitter.com profile] dreamwidth for updates and in case something takes longer than expected.

It seems something broke regarding how Dreamwidth is indexed by Google.

I saw someone mention on one forum I go that they can't find the https://sims2defaults.dreamwidth.org on google by searching "Sims 2 default database" and I tested it too and it was only bringing up few posts linking to the page but never the actual page on Dreamwidth. Then I tested with other search engines (DuckDuckGo, Startpage, Ecosia and Yahoo) DuckDuckGo, Ecosia and Yahoo could find it immediately without issues but Startpage uses Google engine and was unable to find it. Of course this could be issue from Google's side too but I thought I'd report it anyway just in case.
