You are welcome to develop your own external labelling service. Placeopedia acts as a linkage between Wikipedia and Google: why not set up something of your own for content labelling? Useful information can be found here: http://www.w3.org/PICS/#Developers
Scalability would be the problem. We have a million articles, but a large editor pool too. To tag pages, we would need to harness that editor pool.
Hosting this stuff within the Foundations purview would IMNHSO be foolish.
Oh? Why?
Actually incorporating it into Mediawiki would be suicidal. Imagine the edit wars which could be provoked.
Yeah? We have edit wars about silly stuff now. You really think labelling a page "contains images of naked bodies" is so contentious?
