[edit] Response to Continuous spamming to Black Hat and White Hat

The external links I provided were not spam. For some reason or another the current entry for 'Black hat' alludes only to crackers and hackers. There is another meaning for 'Black hat' in the context of search engine marketing. For example an exact search for "black hat seo" in Google provides 271,000 references. Compare this with an exact search for "black hat hacker" which provides only 33,700 references. There are similar examples for "white hat".

Why do you choose to completely exclude the more popular meaning of these two terms?
