Namely, if the English Wiki servers are hosted in a U.S. state, then the site does, if I am not mistaken, fall under various laws about the distribution of "obscene" images to minors. "Obscene" is of course a subject term, in the legal realm as well as here, but there is some precedent which could allow one to make such decisions.
See [[Miller test]]. Wikipedia would fail to meet the definition of obscene in the U.S. no matter what specific images we host due to the third critera: "the work, taken as a whole, lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value."
