This is very unconvincing, because it's very easy to keep track on steps 
of other users. ;-)

And of course there is not a single clue why it happend or what he did 
wrong. That's like putting someone into the jail while holding a trial 
excluded from the public, while the prosecutor and judge are the same 
person(s). Reminds me on the middle age.

I don't see it as solving a problem. I see it as way to improve Commons 
while not making the anti porn lobby raining down useless and stupid 
deletion requests on Commons or proposing and pushing even more idiocy 
in resolutions, like that sexuality related images have to be hidden in 
special categories and are forbidden to show up in more general 
categories, even if they contain the subject.

The most useful part of a comment I found in the search discussion on 
Commons was:

Category:Photographs of non-kosher mammals standing on the hind legs 
with the visible genitalia made in Germany with a digital camera during 
Rammadon at night

I don't complain. I made a proposal. Someone might pick it up and make 
something out of it. If no one does, then i won't cry. But if someone 
comes up with such stupid tagging, rating or hiding approaches and 
implements it, then I will leave the project alone, since it would be 
already dead at this point.
