1. It's impossible to remove it from google but they will permamently expunged from the wiki after the month is up. I can assure you of this and the admins can also manually wipe a page from the wiki without leaving a restore.

2. While your scepticism is understandable many things said on the internet stay there. due to the small nature of our wiki it'd be difficult to find them from outside of the wiki with google without exact wordings (even then it could get buried.)
