No its called censorship. Or at least it will be called censorship by enough people to make any debate not worth the effort. >rather than something that can be imposed by filtering.

Perhaps but I wasn't aware that their opinions were considered to be of any significance at this point. Okey they did block [[user:Beta_M]] but the fact that very much came out of the blue shows how little consideration they are given these days. The fact remains that anyone who actually wants a filter could probably put one together in the form of an Adblock plus filter list within a few days. So far the only list I'm aware of is one I put together to filter out images of Giant isopods. -- geni _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
