For these and other reasons, en.wp should develop

conflicts, whilst avoiding maintenance issues and keeping the
articles relevant until such time as the subjects may be viewed in
historical context.
And, of course, [[WP:LIVING]] has pretty much from its creation said
what you're asking for here: facts in the article need to be relevant
to the subject's notability.
