I don't think that will actually be a problem. There are plenty of people that want to tell other people what not to look at but don't feel bound by the same rules themselves. They can label the images. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
