I think the first option sounds ideal. I don't know why the category was deleted in the first place, although obviously not being an admin I can't see what the content was.

I don't really understand the second: my understanding of Category:Hidden categories is that (a) it's only added onto categories, not pages in other namespaces, (b) it only hides the name of a category, rather than preventing anything from being indexed and (c) it would have no effect whatsoever on Special:Wantedcategories, especially since you can't add Category:Hidden categories to Category:Noindexed pages if the latter doesn't exist.

Honestly, I hate the way Wikia works sometimes. All I wanted to do is fix a typo, and suddenly I've got a problem with Google indexing a non-existent userpage containing automated text.
