message: -The image linked from this article who's encyclopedic merit is currently being discussed appears to be consistent with my own semen. The colour is very similar, and the quantity seems about right. Barring a test for texture consistency, the image does appear to be an accurate representation of the topicality, and is therefore encyclopedic in nature by virtue of being an accurate representation.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.212.48.76 (talk • contribs) 
Get that disgusting image of your semen on a couch off the entry.

Did someone jack off and take a picture afterwards? Someone had to to get an image like that.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.220.159.42 (talk • contribs) 
Would this qualify as "original research"? And if so, is there conceivably a way to get school credit for this research? --24.58.14.1 03:06, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Semen in a beaker or a vile would be acceptable but a splashed wad of it on a couch? How low do people here want to sink? Revolting almost to a pathetic level. This is a complete joke. The person who left the image is off giggling to himself somewhere. Quadzilla99 08:05, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Someone vandalized the Xbox 360 article by replacing the console image with the semen pic. Editing is disabled for the article, though. I don't know if it'll still be there by the time someone else reads this.--72.65.211.92 17:00, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Allergy to semen is extremley rare, as of 2004 there have been reports published of 80 patients. The allergy can be specific to only one partner, but whether or not this is usually the case is unanswered. The antigen is present in the plasma of the semen (ie not the sperm itself) and the allergic reaction can be completely blocked by use of a condom. The allery is often first noticed after sex following tragedy to the vagina, such as childbirth.

This article states that semen allergy occurs: "In rare cases (about 5 percent of the population)".
Now 5% is not rare - this is one in twenty! Surely this statistic cannot be correct! And if it is, then this allergy is by no means rare, rather very common. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.68.173.137 (talk • contribs).

message: I do not know who read this, but the Semen article shows what Wikipedia editors are capabible of!
:Wikipedia semen shortage filled by User Generated Content
:It was only when it was discovered that the site's entry for "semen" was in need of copyright-free illustration that one member heroically rose to the challenge. Or rather the member's member did.
The illustration remains, here. [NSFW]
And what a splendid contribution it is.
Come on, "editors" (namely Atom and Prom), stop making Wikipedia look like it is run by a bunch of idiots.  Let this image be removed and hopefully restore any creditability Wikipedia still has. Rockules318 17:40, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Is this person taking the pics even over the age of 18? 
If he isn't, then there is the legal issue of child pornography. 
In which case, these images would have to be taken down.
