What exactly about noindexing pages removes their history?
Nothing. The principal benefit that I can see about blocking Search engines to anything but Article, Image, and Portal space is that our readers see and find the real content, that we're producing. With real life names, defamation, libel, BLP vios, and lord knows what else buried in archives of DRV, AFD, user talk, project space... how does it benefit us to let all that hang out? So the occassional user can "search about" another user? Does not compute.
