Actually it's a great article for exactly the reason you give for it being a bad article.

She has no idea how to tell Google to stop saying to the world she is dead. There are "this is wrong" buttons that she clicks that don't do anything, apparently.

This is actually the point of her article. She doesn’t know how to fix the problem and Google (the robot) isn't providing tools to fix it.

Yes, you and I know that if she goes to a high traffic site such as wikipedia, google will scan that very quickly. But that's a hack, albeit a very simple one, but still a hack requiring a lot of knowledge of how Google, and the web, works.
