Wikipedia articles that present material about living people can
affect
their subjects' lives.
Trouble is, even if you NOINDEX so it can't find it in google, they could still find it in the wikipedia or via inbound links.
So, although, the proposal could (at best) conceivably improve things, it would ultimately solve nothing.>>
And I would like to add that anyone could simply repost the information, point at the Wikipedia article as the source, obeying the GFDL considerations effectively eliminating any benefit from Noindex. Which basically is what mirrors accomplish anyhow.
Any mirror can repost any manually crawled content without regard to Noindex. Noindex is not a requirement that anyone is bound to obey.
