 == Article illustration - A rationale == 

 I got onto this page from the discussion from a thread over censorship on this site. It's important therefore to note and what I am about to say is that I did not search for this article. 

 What I can conclude is that there are disproportionate number of sad bastards who edit Wikipedia, if they don't realise why the image ""to illustrate this page"" causes so much disruption. 

 Does Wikipedia need to pander to the sad beggers who would actually go searching for this twaddle? Is it vitally important that a textual description is not enough? Or that a picture is of the upmost importance to help ""visualise"" what sucking your own cock looks like???  

 I see the main problem here is basic responsibility and has nothing to do with censorship. Censorship, using Wikipedia's own definition: 

 ""'....is the suppression of speech or deletion of communicative material which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient to the government or media organizations as determined by a censor."" 

 In this case, the sex act is fully recorded and described in ridiculous detail. It is not about censorship. 

 However responsibility refers to how this information is used and presented.  And that is completely lacking here! I am sorry if this argument has been made before but, if Wikipedia is to have articles on such crap would it not be prudent, using the logic behind this image, to illustrate every single one with graphic scenes that are described in the text. 

 To me, this debate (and it won't end) is all about how long a bunch of saddos can use play the rules so that an unnecessary image of a guy blowing himself can remain on this page.  

 I mean if you go here Child pornography the fact that there are no images seems pretty clear. But before a genius says ""Oh that shit's illegal you can't show that kinda stuff"". Who says it's illegal? The perverts who create that filth or the government systems. Pictures on Greek vases showing sodomy of minors is now taboo, but once it was classical studies. 

 Do you see where this is going? It's about responsibility not about censorship. So take down the image and be smart, rather than just using Wikipedia rules to score points.... 

 :::PS But after a reread, I could have just answered my own question. If you are 'tarded enough to search for an article like this, then maybe YOU do need an image to help visualise what sucking your own cock looks like!! I mean reading isn't going to be one of your strongest smarts, now is it? LOL   "
