[WikiEN-l] Deleting the Lolicon picture

[Fred Bauder]

It's not a matter of being a "pedophile". I find the image  
interesting and appealing (even humorous). However I am well aware  
that it is not wise to share this perspective with a 12 year old  
girl. It is fundamental reality that a substantial part of our  
readership is in the junior high school range. I know from my own  
experience that I seldom consulted an encyclopedia after I was about  
13. There is a saying, "You take your victim as you find them" We  
need to be aware and responsible.
