Not really. How would you like it if someone went around to _your_ contributions and marked them up in ways you found insulting and derogatory? That would be a bad thing, and nobody should do it. It would be disrespectful of you as a contributor, and it would also be a violation of Wikipedia policy.
If I wrote an article that had bare breasts, I wouldn't be in the least offended if someone tagged it as "has bare breasts".
We need to keep [[Britannia]] in mind where it says, "Early portraits of the goddess depict Britannia as a beautiful young woman, wearing the helmet of a Centurion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centurion, and wrapped in a white toga with her right breast exposed."
IIRC Britannica had an arrangement of the trident and shield in its logos before it adopted a thistle with which to nourish goats.
Who could complain about a goddess with her bare Britannicas ready to nourish a nation?
