What's with all the trivial link spam?
mixmax: The answer might be quite boring.When a new user comes to this site he will try out the functionality, click around and see how things work. One of the things that he will probably want to know is how to submit an article. So he goes ahead and tries it, using whatever link he has handy.I know this because I did it myself when I joined. I deleted it right away though. I've seen the same thing on other sites, so it's not that unusual.Edit: tuned down the wording a bit, since PG's reply indicates that this might not be the sole reason.
