Webmasterworld guy needs help for his website

I came across this thread where a webmaster world guy was seeking help for the problems he was facing,
“Noticed a 50% Google traffic drop in one of my sites. Site has some 7 years and has some 170 pages in 3 different languages including English and Spanish. Several pages was #1 and others in first 10 positions mostly.
Other search engines seems to be ok with rankings including some Yahoo’s #1.
Even now with half the usual traffic I get lots of bookmarks what is a good indicator to me.
Regarding Google: some pages are still #1 but other pages are dozens or hundred of pages down now for older keyphrase.
However I noticed that if I pick just some words of my keyphrase my page ranks in first 10 or 30 results, while using the old 2 words keywords phrase that used to rank #1, results in #300
I haven’t changed site so I wonder why Google went from love to hate with those pages…
So what I’m doing is “deoptimizing” pages, lowering keyword density and wait, but I’m not sure about it. I’m assuming a kind of -950 penalty http://www.webmasterworld.com/google/3215939.htm
Perhaps I just need to wait (in case my case matches this: http://www.webmasterworld.com/google/3669390.htm )
Site was banned in wikipedia months ago, but never had problems with google about it and I don’t think Google use wikipedia to consider a site good or not. “

Can you help join this thread, webmasterworld.com/google/3705564.htm
