Link  if someone follows a link from one of the articles which links to Autofellatio, or does a Google search, or uses the Random page feature, they should not be exposed to this image immediately.  It should be possible to read the article to find out what Autofellatio might be without being subjected to the image.   I have not, in fact, read the article because I don't want to see the image, and it isn't clear to me at present whether the image is there. There are a large number of people who are not comfortable with this type of image and do not wish to see them.  Images of unusual sex practices are regarded as "shock images" and/or pornography by many. Others may be fine with this type of image.  Wikipedia editors who think there is nothing exceptional about these images should not attempt to force their views on everyone else.   This is not about openness; it is about respect for Wikipedia's readers.  Personally, I think this type of image should not be in the Wikipedia at all.  It discredits the encyclopedia with a large proportion of its potential readership, makes it problematical to use the Wikipedia in precisely those places where encyclopedias are commonly used (namely, schools and libraries)  and it fights a battle that is completely at a tangent to the aims of the project.  I don't expect to gain a consensus for that view.    But at least lets keep these images as optional.   02:40, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
