As part of ongoing work with SEO for a website I built, Google was complaining about 500 errors on pages such as:

http://[domain]/[page]?format=feed&type=atom

In order to turn off the automatic RSS Atom feeds, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Content > Article Manager
  2. Click Options
  3. On the Integration tab, set Show Feed Link to Hide
  4. Save & Close
  5. Under Menus, click the menu that contains the Home link
  6. Within the menu, click the Home link
  7. On the Integration tab, set Show Feed Link to Hide
  8. Save & Close
