Uh-oh, I can see the headlines now -
"Wikipedia founder favors censorship, calls it "editorial judgment"'
"Your company censored from Wikipedia? Wales is OK with that"
"The British government has learned that Jimmy Wales has sought significant quantities of censorship - from Africa"

"There ought to be limits to freedom."
"One of the great things about Wikipedia articles is, sometimes there are some fantastic pictures."
"I know that the editors and the readers can coexist peacefully."
"This is an impressive crowd — the edits and the edit-mores. Some people call you the elites; I call you my admins."
"They want editors controlling articles editorially - like it's some kind of encyclopedia.
"Facing clear evidence of peril, we cannot wait for the final proof -- the smoking gun -- that could come in the form of a vandalized main page."
And finally:
"Vandals never stop thinking about how to hurt Wikipedia, and neither do we."
