Pete, you know the "toothbrush" image you
talk about on your blog still
shows up on a Commons search for "electric toothbrush", right? It's in
Category:Nude
or partially nude people with electric
toothbrushes<
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Nude_or_partially_nude_people_w…
which
is in turn a subcategory of
Category:People
with electric toothbrushes<
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:People_with_electric_toothbrush…
so
it shows up on any search of
"electric toothbrush".
Seems the whole category thing really isn't as solved as well as people
think. It still comes up as image #4 on a multimedia search of enwiki for
"electric toothbrush" and about #45 for a multimedia search of
"toothbrush". Even though the title was changed, it remains in the
category that gives high-ranking searches.
Quite. Same goes for "beads", "flashlight", or the French word for
cucumber
("concombre"). The "tolling bells" toll as loudly as ever.
This Wikipedia search form is SFW (safe for work):
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Search&search=&f…
The search results for the above terms (and many others) are not SFW.
The NSFW search results issue never was solved. It's just one of those
things there was no political will to fix.
