(from "List of places blurred out on Google Maps")

maybe giving the impression that Google makes this censorship business.

i dont see how these links fall into the deletion policy:

The Wikipedia deletion policy describes how material which does not
meet the relevant content criteria is identified and removed from
Wikipedia.

Reasons for deletion include but are not limited to violation of
copyright, content that does not belong in an encyclopedia, and
content not attributable to a reliable source, especially if the
content is negative in tone. In the normal operations of Wikipedia,
approximately five thousand pages are deleted each day, through the
processes outlined below.

i guess google maps (wikipedia's owner) is not a reliable source :-)
