Pornographic photo

Why is it necessary for Wikipedia to show the reader an example of "hentai" with no warning or censorship? What educational, scientific, artistic, journalistic, or cultural value does showing a Japanese anime girl being penetrated by a man's penis add to the world? Are we assuming the reader has never seen pornography, and needs to be shown what it looks like? I find the statement "Wikipedia is not censored" laughable, as the article on Abortion notably does not show any pictures of abortion. Why is that?

NSFW images in preview popup

Latest comment: 3 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I understand the inclusion of NSFW images from an educational point of view, but if Wikipedia articles continue to use NSFW images, is there a way for them to be flagged as such before clicking on the article.

In this case, even the act of hovering over a link to Eroge displays the NSFW image, which in my case, I was not expecting. It does make it concerning using Wikipedia in public places if there is a chance that NSFW material will flash up on screen unexpectedly. ~2026-17050-2 (talk) 03:39, 18 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

This was answered on the TA's talk page. To keep it short, to hide NSFW images, follow the instructions at Help:Options to hide an image. Warudo (talk) 22:51, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
