Sam;
I think that this is more of a Commons discussion. While I disagree with much
of what you say, I agree that this class of image, by its very nature, requires
more scrutiny. Serious thought should be given to a Nude Model Policy of

On a totally off-topic note, Category:SuicideGirls looks to me like preview
pictures to promote a commercial site. While I can see some use for some of
those pictures (like piercing articles, etc), the collection as a whole
would not fall ,at least IMHO, under "Must be realistically useful for

I don't think that that was the reason. The publishers would be the

Hoi,
So you are killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. There is the license
and the uploader AND it may be PD. The cost of adding this is not calculated
as there is no functionality (as far as I know) that does it. When I print
at my copy shop, I get a prestine copy. Remeber these are typical

Well, it's not, but that's actually not a very useful point. I was never
in Cameroon. I have never met anybody from Cameroon. I have never seen
any obvious evidence that Cameroon really exists. And

Not the images themselves equal harm. But it can mean harm to people. As

Hoi,
I could not disagree more with you. People who work on Wikipedia do this

of paramount importance, what makes people proud of this endeavour. When
people use my pictures and my ,it makes a difference how they use it. Bu
