[edit] Pornography?
Have you actually reported it to someone? ~~ [Jam][talk] 12:12, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- It seems that there have been plenty of discussion about this issue, but every time it seems that pro-pornographic content editors win. I'd like to see their arguments which made this encyclopedia so degrading. Eklipse (talk) 09:12, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Oh for.....
Why are you leaving? Wiki policy makes it clear - Wiki is not censored etc.
I don't like the fact either, but I just ignore it, avoiding such pages for example.
Editing mainly rail articles will mean you don't come across much.... Btline (talk) 13:35, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Ok I'll stay, but I will fight for justice in this dispute. Britishrailclass91 (talk) 14:40, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

- I suspect you won't get very far. This has been widely discussed and the consensus is that, based upon the principle that Wikipedia isn't censored, it is appropriate to have content that might offend some individuals because not doing so is likely to harm our readers understanding of a subject. One of the core ideas about Wikipedia is that we're aiming to create a very comprehensive encyclopaedia, it is inevitable that some of the articles we require to fulfil this aim might upset some or contain content that some feel isn't appropriate. Children shouldn't really be browsing the internet, not just Wikipedia, without some kind of parental supervision until such time as they are able to understand that there are some very dark corners on the internet that they might like to avoid. There are much greater dangers for children out there on the web than seeing an image of a penis when they read our article on the subject or whatever. Adambro (talk) 15:01, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Why did you do this? Adambro (talk) 14:33, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- If you read it, It says please feel free to remove this template to have MetsBot re-check it. Happy? Britishrailclass91 (talk) 14:35, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- There isn't any point having the bot recheck the info on Commons since it will always come back as a fail because whereas here on Wikipedia the image was uploaded by the creator so it is tagged with {{self}}, this wasn't the case on Commons so it isn't included on the page there. It appears that the bot isn't smart enough to realise this. Adambro (talk) 14:38, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- well maybe wiki shouldn't have bots? Britishrailclass91 (talk) 14:42, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- The bots we have are useful tools to aid humans, they don't replace them. Bots can't deal with every possible situation as in this case. This isn't a reason not to have bots, its a reason to have humans. Adambro (talk) 15:07, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Leaving?
You keep saying you're going to leave but don't seem to and I note that you created Wikipedia:Editor review/Britishrailclass91 only yesterday suggesting you're looking for feedback from other editors to improve your contributions which is pretty pointless if you're leaving. Your comments here were inappropriate. If you notice an error then fix it and ideally find a reliable source to cite. Presumably it was meant to be 3 platforms (2 operational). The whole idea of Wikipedia is that everyone works together to improve rather than making offensive comments when you spot a mistake.
If you are looking for some feedback on your editing then I think the first thing to improve would be your use of edit summaries which is currently very low. Please provide a quick summary of the changes you make for every edit. Regards. Adambro (talk) 12:54, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- So those comments are inappropriate but pictures of naked women and pornography like in recent times are? Tut Tut Tut Britishrailclass91 (talk) 20:03, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
