Hello, Topdarlingwh. I've tried to explain this in edit summaries but I guess you want a more detailed explanation.

The point of __NOINDEX__ is not to add a page to a category. It is a magic word / code which prevents external search engines (like google) from indexing (see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words). Think of it like a template. Adding a template to a page might add it to certain hidden categories but that's not its main purpose. Same here. I need this text on the page for my privacy, because I don't want this Gravity Falls wiki to come up when someone searches "Bilorv" in google. I don't really want to explain further, but need either (a) the page to be noindexed or (b) the page to be deleted, and I see no need for the latter if the former was allowed to be the case. (I wouldn't have created my page in the first place, but Wikia does it automatically when you make an edit.)

Even if __NOINDEX__ did nothing, I don't understand why you need to edit another user's profile page and remove it. It's my page and I can put whatever I want there, as long as it's not offensive.

Threatening me with blocks seems a bit rude, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Just please let me add __NOINDEX__ to my page. You still haven't provided any reason to remove it other than "Removing vandalism", which sounds like an honest mistake. I might not be able to respond very swiftly, but I will try to reply if you want me to explain further.
