"Offensive" is not a valid editorial criteria for a Wikipedia article.
What is "offensive" (includes "immoral") varies between people in areas such as sex, religion, politics, and violence. Wikipedia disregards these labels as valid grounds for the removal of information, whether in text or image form. Information will only be removed for valid editorial reasons.
- Do not remove, relocate or replace text or images in articles because you find them "offensive" or believe that others may find them "offensive".
- Do not argue for or against the removal or replacement of text or images simply on the grounds that you find them "offensive" or believe that others may find them "offensive".
