Hoi, Children in Romania know what to expect of a pizdăhttp://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pizd%C4%83#Romanian, children in Indonesia know it for the tempikhttp://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=tempik&action=edit&redlink=1.. They are both descriptive and you do not know at all that you want to look for them
Truly the notion that the description will tell you that something is not safe for wok is naive. It is also naive to use it for setting up a web blocker. Trust me, kids are quite capable to find their way around such silly toys because they have more incentive to do so then you have to set up something like a web blocker. Thanks, GerardM

Wikipedia images and pages normally have descriptive titles. If you want to prevent children seeing bad stuff on the internet, set up a web blocker. Mind you, if you want to prevent children seeing bad stuff on the internet, best to raise them in an Amish village.

A child seeing such a page will ordinarily go instead to something they understand. Unless we're talking about teen-agers. I see this as an excellent example of the slippery slope we would be in if we did anything targeted at facilitating censorship, especially considering the author of the book is a major writer. There are some elements of these themes in some of his other work also. Do we label them as well?
The only sustainable position is that readers can do what they want with our content. If they can derive a filter for what hey want . (I don't see how they can for a novel except by putting it specifically on a blacklist)

You're right, it is not just about images. If I set up a censored
account for a small child, I should be able to set it up in such a way
that
they won't be able to see articles like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hogg_(novel)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hogg_%28novel%29
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hogg_%28novel%29or

So, if the child clicks on a wikilink leading there, they would get a
screen saying, "Sorry, >this page is only available to adult accounts."
Child responds by logging out.
