I agree that we shouldn't be displaying links to the beheadings. We've done it in around six articles. One of the websites we give the URL for (though not as a live link) is the ogrish site, which also shows young women having sex with horses. The fact that we have to crawl into the gutter to find these videos ought to tell us something. I wish we'd show more maturity as a community when it comes to stuff like this.
To some people, such "gutter" is everyday life. They too have a need for an informative and complete encyclopedia.
Why do you think so many 19 year old american soldiers coming back from iraq are fubared in the head? Because they went from lily-white to scaping the bottom of the human barrel in 2 weeks.
If all wikipedia ever does is help war survivors cope, that will be reason enough to have built it.
Note: FUBAR, from wikipedia: A slang acronym which can mean "Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition" and/or or "Fucked Up Beyond All Repair".
