Well, given that an image filter is a technically easy proposition, no, its
not because of lack of resources that the wiki's haven't implemented one. If
the community had wanted one it would have been developed and ready to go
years ago.

The WMF foundation has no business doing X if the community already has the
ability do X. They were created to do what we can not, manage servers and
legal.

We have already seen top down control fail with Nupedia and Citizendium.
