I don't see it, David. An NPOV violation would be something like a rule against articles on sexual practices discussing whether or not they appear in the bible, or something. I don't really see how the absence of graphic images changes the neutrality of the content otherwise. Fwiw, I've long thought the presence of graphic sexual pictures on Commons, and certainly in Wikipedia, does more harm than good, because it means the site "can't be trusted" in the eyes of librarians, teachers, etc etc. Steve _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
