Revision 9 . . November 7, 2001 3:24 pm by Simon J Kissane [you can't compare the word fuck to graphic images of torture]
  

Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Added: 15a16,19

:Additionally, if showing pictures of torture significantly added to the informational content of the article, I would advocate their inclusion (though perhaps on a subpage where the squeamish weren't forced to read them as part of the article). To take a specific example for the future, if Wikipedia gets to the point where audio recordings are made available from it, there are audio tapes of executions that were played on NPR? last year. Some segments of them might be *highly* relevant and informative on the death penalty page.

Finally, could somebody please explain to me why people are so insistent on jumping through hoops to avoid the use of the word where its use for purposes of accuracy is so justified. It's just a word describing (if with a lack of poetry) a usually highly pleasurable act performed by billions of people around the world every single day. --Robert Merkel
