Description:
Some people complained on :fr that their names appear in Google in our requests
for deletion, the robots.txt seems to be correctly set (see Bug 4776) but it
doesn't seem to work.

fr:

Disallow: /wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Pages_%C3%A0_supprimer/

For example, try "metametris" on google.com, the third or fourth link starts
with the disallowed URL. Could there be a problem related to encoding ?

No summary appears for the page in the google results; this is consistent
with Google's treatment of robots.txt-disallowed pages.

Unfortunately you'll have to complain to Google if you don't like that; that's
just how they do things. The URL still appears in their index, it's just not
spidered and the content isn't available for search or cache.
