but policy pages and guidelines and essays are searchable, by usingthe search function on wikipedia.
the solution to inadequacies there in other respects is to upgrade it. I though thatthis was in fact an ongoing project? or hove we given it up, in favor of becoming willing to do whatever google says we should do?
First and hopefully uncontroversial step: make user and user talk space non searchable via google etc. That will at any rate diminish the tendency to use Wikipedia as a personal web site.

Why is it overkill? What is there on non-encyclopedia pages that should be searchable?
Risker
Policy pages, guidelines, essays.
List of redlinks: anyone who doesn't realise that should get back to writing articles. The onsite search is rather poor, for example at showing versions without diacritics.
