[Foundation-l] Letter to the community on Controversial Content

[Hubert]

David, did you read the german article completely?
have you compared the contents of which part of the concept of violence
and more attention is paid to what portion of the term violence in en:
wp did not occur?

Gewalt ist nicht unbedingt in gleicher Form Gewalt.

to say it simply: hitting someones head, to shoot s.o. is in en: WP the
primary part of the article (this is very simplifying, indeed). The
German article is a far greater degree of philosophical and sociological
issues of violence.

This difference alone makes it clear that a single definition of what
violence is or may be, and how it manifests itself in images, can not
even enter.

Quite frankly, I do not want that maybe people who are socialized to a
far greater degree in a culture of violence than other cultures can be
categorized by images of tens of thousands to impose his concept of
violence.

Even though we are all Wikipedians, even within the German Wikipedia,
there are significant cultural differences.

And violence is - contrary to religion and sexuality - just the smaller
problem.
