I completely agree with at policy, but wonder if it is well enough known.
Perhaps it ought to be more publicised. A month or so ago I came across a
suspect User (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Roman_Czyborra) whose User
page photograph of himself was a "seemingly" adolescent boy full frontal
(anyone who is the father of sons would know instantly) but it still took a
couple of weeks to get the image deleted - and then only after the user
showed his true colours and was banned. That is not good enough really. I
do think the message has to be stronger and more visible. Not to a state of
witch-hunt but certainly so we all know when to be decisive and fast to
respond.

There was a
recent ANI post about a user who identifies himself as a
peodophile (

know where we stand in
relation to peadophiles. Any thoughts or opinions on this subject? I
know it's difficult, but we really need some kind of policy about this.

We have a policy. Advocacy of pedophilia is not tolerated, nor is trolling
for partners.
