Looking at the timing of the phrase appeared in the email list I think you were physically present when the phrase stated being used in the context of dealing controversial content. Certainly I can find it being used in that context before that London meetup that Dory Carr-Harris attended. And in that case at least the meaning was very much in the direction of not including controversial content unless there was a valid reason to do so. It was unrelated to an image filter. Shocking images in [[Nanking Massacre]] are pretty much expected. [[People's Republic of China–Japan relations]] not so much. [[Agent orange]] is a more boarderline case but these things are never easy as [[Wikipedia:LAME#Names]] shows. -- geni _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
