User:TheDJ/On tagging and filtering
This is a list of possible methodologies that can be applied
- We do nothing new, continue to delete obviously illegal material and works with no obvious educational application
- A 'first visit' content warning presented to users when they first visit Wikimedia Commons. proposed by Gmaxwell
- Inform people about filter systems that their school or individual parents might want to use.
- Make media content that is not in use, invisible to 'normal users'
- Use our current categories
- Use those categories to create lists of URLs that organizations might want to block
- Use dedicated rating categories
- Mark images that some consider offensive with NOINDEX
- Present people with an "are you 18 years or older" page before they can see 'objectionable' content
- We tag pages with something like ICRA tags that can be recognized by external filters (list of external filters used by libraries)
- We create our own filtering system alla Google safesearch
- We create our own filtering that is even more flexible than ICRAs ratings allowing everyone to block just about anything they object to.
- Blur objectionable content and only unblur by clicking it
- We limit the scope of Wikimedia Commons to childsafe material
- We create some open source desktop filtering software
