 Replying to [comment:3 Ipstenu]:
 > One thought for Jan's ask. We could hide those fields. That would help
 SEO on WP.org as well, if we're not already. No more bad links/data, just
 pffft. Gone.

 That would be good. Right now the forum profile is hidden but logged in
 users can read the profile and links.

 I like to wipe them and copy them into the notes because we've had people
 argue when they use their old profile as "proof". By making it so only
 moderators or higher can read them it preserves that and prevents people
 from seeing it.

 I like to keep it to be aware if the email forum-password-resets.
