Hi,

There was a suggestion a few years ago on this forum about adding a canonical url to the documentation set:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/04E4F5A6-6526-4DDC-A9E5-2991E3B2ED83%40cantoute.com

Was there a reason for not doing this?  At the moment it can be pretty annoying googling something like "postgres select syntax", and getting a pretty random selection of duplicate pages, none of which matches the current version of Postgres.  Even google for "postgres 9.6 select syntax" still doesn't return the correct version for me.

In contrast, other documentation sites such as MySql, CouchDb, Python, Django, etc. all behave much better in search engine results.  For CouchDb and Django you can see use of the canonical tag on the documentation pages.  For the others they must be doing something different, but still they've managed to direct Google to the single, current version of the correct page.

I'm just wondering if something has looked into this already, or if canonical url is something that could be tested for the postgres documentation?

The goal for me would be to make the documentation for the current version of Postgres rise to the top of search engine results, and to remove the random results for older versions.

What do you think?

Kind regards,

Conor McNally
