Splash Rep gains listing - removable?

When searching for quests that gain rep with a certain faction, it seems splash rep gains are included.
I used to be able to search for quests that raise rep with Gnomeregan Exiles and get only ones that raise it directly... but now I get all the splash ones too, putting the amount of results WAY over the 200 listable in search.
I was wondering if that splash rep thing could be removed?
If that'd require going through each quest and removing it manually, perhaps when Cataclysm comes out and all the quests change, the wowhead client could be set to avoid splash rep, even if some other addon forces it to show?
I hope this will be considered.
Thanks.

Well, when Cataclysm comes out they probably aren't changing "all" of the quests and I'm sure we'll still be retaining some original quest data. It may be possible to ignore reputation gains under a certain amount, though there aren't an extreme amount of quests that give <10 reputation (as seen in
this filter
). This also includes some repeatable quests with low reputation gains, though they are technically reputation gains so many users may wish to see that this splash rep does exist.
I think the main issue is not that the site is displaying these 'splash rep' quests (there's probably just as many users who like the fact that we do as hate it), but that in an unfiltered query (ie. without branching into zone subcategories) you're still going to be limited in the available results (200). There are a few things we can do in this scenario: we can increase the amount of results available by a query (kicking that 200 limit out of the window, if the site can handle that) and we can also add a filter option to allow manual specification of a reputation amount threshold (ie. only show quests awarding >250 reputation). So in this case, you would be able to select two filters (Awards reputation with... Gnomeregan Exiles, Awards reputation amount... >500). I'll see what we can do about these changes.
