Top linked Steem posts ranking for Week 1 September 2016

Top 25 most cited posts and their statistics including number of incoming links, number of linking authors and others.

The ranking formula is as follows: number_of_unique_linking_authors^2 + number_of_unique_linking_authors * n_of_links. This means that the ranking score will grow quadratically with the number of unique linking authors and linearly with the number of unique linking posts.

This ranking includes only links from posts made between 2016-09-01 and 2016-09-08 without a parent_author (not comments) with a non-negative number of votes excluding a short list of noisy authors.
