No, not ditto for the Tiananmen stuff. Yes it's horrible, but did you know that a 1850 rebellion cause 50 million deaths in China? Where's that article? Look at the whole filtering of internet content in america's school and libraries. It's been raging now for a while, with no end in sight. But nobody gets killed. Let's keep things in perspective.
Now I have no idea what you're trying to argue. In a wiki you're not going to get very far trying to order people to write on subject A before they write on subject B, and if your purpose is to appease governments, for many editors that's all the excuse they need to write in even more depth on the subjects you're wanting to avoid.
If persons in the PRC want to risk real-world punishment by reading or writing disapproved material, that's a judgement they have to make for themselves; there's nobody on the outside qualified to make that choice for them.

He did not say that. This can only be a self-decision of course.
