Meta-question -
Is there in fact sufficient evidence that this is a topic that the
Foundation must, or should, engage in actively at this time?
I know why the Foundation has an inclination to get involved - people
ask about it, and some very uncomfortable stuff finds its way into
Commons and the Encyclopedias at times and in places, and it's
inconvenient to have Fox News making a big deal about false claims of
pedophiles or child porn on Wikipedia when we're trying to be taken
seriously as a responsible charitable organization, and so forth.
But that does not mean that it's necessarily something the Foundation
should involve itself in at this point.
