I totally agree with Andre here.
I think it's important for us to take a middle path here. (Big surprise coming from me, huh?) We can't be complete cultural relativists and say "anything goes in any wikipedia as long as the participants agree" -- this would be the end of neutrality. At the same time, we must not be complete cultural *imperialists* and assume that exactly identical decisions have to be made everywhere, particularly on sensitive matters that have a strong cultural component.

A policy that says that we will exclude the same on all languages, says that we don't trust the Wikipedias to make their own choices.
I think that's very well said.
