There appear to be 8 or 9 messages specifically for people asking to
be removed or those answering them in the general archives (at a quick
glance). If we remove or edit any of those threads should we do the
same to all of them? Or just wait until the given people complain?
I am not sure I would be a fan of editing the archive in general.
A person's name isn't exactly "private" or "sensitive" information to
begin with, although a case could (but I don't think should) be made
for their email address/name combination. Still, I don't think that
someone's name shows up associated with an action they actually took
warrants editing the archives because they regret taking the action.

Quoting Nathan Hourt <[email protected]>:
Could you just remove the person's name from the old message? That way the
archive remains mostly intact, and they are no longer searchable. That's
also an easily automateable solution that lets us keep useful messages while
giving the users their privacy.
