manner that doesn't special-case Wikipedians. The general category of
non-notable attack websites/blogs is rarely worth linking to, and since
their proponents often spend a lot of effort trying to link them and
they can have negative effects (moreso than most spam), it might be
worth some special effort to keep them out.
"Rarely", though, isn't "never".
What happens when one of those rare cases shows up?
It's better to make a policy to cover what happens most of the time. We
can handle the exceptions on a case by case basis.
