The only issue
now is the details: what to display by default and what to link by
default. Being only a semi-prude, I say simple nudity is almost always
OK to display by default while sex acts (both with oneself and with the
help of others ) is almost always not OK to display by default in
articles (with the possible exception of good line drawings).
I think it's here that you'll find that I've only been describing current
policy and practice.
The current situation is that we judge things on an article-by-article
basis. The survey on objectionable images arrived at a very strong
consensus for this in December.
The current written policy recognises that linking is an act of degrading
the utility of an article so we should avoid censorhip if an image adds
something to an article.
Now there does appear to be on this list a concentration of people in
favor of somewhat more drastic censorship than applies at present.
However the present practice does seem to work well and produce good
results, so I don't see it changing any time soon.
