Trying to reach out to the censorious by dropping the nekkid pixx0r is a waste of time. They *don't care* if we have nekkid pixx0r or not; our evil is obvious in that we don't parrot their party line about whatever hot-button issue they fuss about.
Hear hear! I couldn't have put it better myself.
Let's not kid ourselves that Wikipedia will ever be suitable for schools. My son says his school blocked access to *any* site whose contents could be altered in realtime by people other than the site owners--that includes forums as well as Wikis. I can see their point and I think they're being very sensible. The grundies, on the other hand, are not going to be satisfied. The best we can do is limit the damage by admitting that no public Wiki can ever be considered child-safe. The kids will still come and read Wikipedia, and learn from it, but they'll do so with the thrill of transgression. This is not a bad thing. Wikis are, or should be, powerful weapons against ignorance. It's as well that we should not appease our natural enemies.
