New description:

 After we've fixed #3951 we should add rel=next / rel=prev to archives like
 this:

 - https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/custom-community/page/2/
 - https://wordpress.org/support/theme/sugar-and-spice/page/6/
 - https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/display-posts-shortcode/page/3/

 If we do that, Google will understand the pagination of these series and
 crawl and rank them more logically.
