I agree, sounds like the only solution is that we pour away a hefty
chunk of those charitably donated WMF millions in a few hundred
thousand variations of the categories and anyone that likes, say,
Bain's version of "common sense" can read BainChildFriendlyWiki.org
instead of the horrid open Wikipedia with it's dreadful nudity,
mutilated bodies, heresies and images of educational and cultural
notability.

Alternatively anyone who has "common sense" can take Wikipedia for
free and hack it about in their own time and cash in by selling it to
schools that would like to benefit from a *guaranteed* child friendly
and religiously tolerant (out of date) version.

Cheers,
Fae
