→Obscene material is not profanity
: You're wrong. 18 USC 1470 is applied to the internet, and whether the website is "free-use" or not is irrelevant.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 00:46, 14 March 2007 (EDT)

::So, can you sue people who disagree with the premise of this "encyclopedia?" or, is the purpose of this comment to point out that nothing X-rated ought to appear here? I am just wondering because it seems if you intend to create something comprehensive, open and fair you will have to entertain that which is not. In, say, an article on lesbianism, would it be acceptable to include other terms, perhaps pejorative in nature, that you deem offensive? Further, would those who use so-called obscene material in their argument against such content also be subject to your prosecution?
Another example of this might be the recent comment by Anne Coulter. She is a popular pundit, but should her Edwards debacle be quoted in its entirety or must we censor the word "f----t" from all mention? Another question I have is then do we link to the obscene material or just allude to it, like "Coulter used a term that means gay to describe edwards" or something? Strange to have a comment like this on the main page. [[User:Menkatron|Menkatron]] 13:32, 14 March 2007 (EDT)
