You don't rate revs you just prepare a list
of whatever content you
want to block plug it into dansguardian and make the list available to
third parties.
Next question: what's stopping people from doing this themselves,
rather than demanding Wikipedia do it for them? If there's demand for
such a service?
- d.
The main difference is that the filtering works from their end and
they have to install the software. Keeping track of all of the images
on commons is a bit of a pain but the categories should clue you into
most of them and once you've got it up and running finding people to
keep it going should be possible. The other advantage of course is
that you can have multiple lists for people with different standards.
