The cause of the reduced pagerank you believe is the large number of
links on my link pages.In one's "link-building project" there are some
practical issues based on the following PREMISES ( correct me if these
premises are flawed):

1) To get say 10 good sites to place links to my site, I may have to
request say 50 to 100 othersites.
2) To get any other site to link to me, I will first have to show them
I have placed their link on mine.
3)Therefore I will have to place a large number of links somewhere on
my links-page to get links to me.
4)I can't do this in small batches of say 10 to 20 links each since it
will become very timeconsuming and tedious and because the target site
may miss seeing their own link on my site if they delay too much.
 
Specifcally : 
 
0) Anyway, if I was to do it this way (batches), what is a good number
to place at a time on my links- page 10, 20 , 30 ?
 
1)How do other people get links to their ? Do they always first place
the target sites  link on their site or do they request without doing
this first ?
 
Aside from the page rank issues,actually the links on my links page
are very useful resources for people who visit my site so, I am not
too happy about deleting most of them :
 
2)If I spread the links all over my site  , on different pages does it
help as far as google is concerned ie is the google penalty based on
number of links on one page  or total number of links on the site ?  (
other things being equal ie aside from the issue of the quality of the
links)
 
3)In regard to the 2 links that I have in a prominent position on
every page of my site pointing to my links page ,
 
a) Does it matter if I dont include the word "links" in name of these
2 links and call these just  "Good HR portals" ?
 
b) Does it help  if I keep my linkspage 3 or 4 levels down in the
directory structure ? If it does help , is this effect negated if I
still have  links on every page of my site pointing to my links page ? (  I
assume that the google spider if it sees the links on every page will
still not go down 3 or 4 levels down and so will not know how many
links there are on my links page -- is this correct ?)

Regards,Slogging

I think how you have been doing things is just fine. Right now, during
the Google Dance, someitmes your home page has PR4, sometimes less. I
suspect that in a few days time everything will be back to normal.
