I never trust any information that G gives during a large update or updates like this. I have seen it many time before, where I have lost thousands of pages or links just to see then return later.

In my case they never disapeared, it was the repoting on G not showing me accurate information.
As usual we will have to wait until we get a hint that this large update is finished and we will then know where we stand.

Of couse G never stops implementing small changes (450) year they say, so you should never just assume your positions will remain.

A lot is being said about the no follow tag no longer letting you sculp page rank, so this will affect millions of sites and any sites they link to.
