I hate to be a broken record, but not censored is not censored. It's not u pto us to make a distinction on what may end up being "dangerous."
I mean, are you going to go after [[Self-immolation]]? [[Erotic aspyxiation]]? Where do we draw the line?

And if we're going to delete an article on the grounds it may be dangerous, we might as well delete the article on suicide itself too. We also have an article on various crimes. That doesn't mean we support someone trying it out.
