I'm not saying that people should delete based on Google results in the first place. In fact I am the one who put that note on historical subjects into the policy in the first place a few years back. Subjects who are not necessarily currently talked-up might have been quite the popular rage back in 1920 or 1920 or 1420, and should not be deleted based on current Google searches.
I must say, the blindness of some AFD participants to anything that happened before 1995 can be more than a little annoying ...
