Line 304:
*'''Oppose''' I won't offer opinion on the wording. I also won't comment on whether this belongs in the article in the first place as that is not in question here. The issue appears to be whether the word "fuck" should be used in the article. As the [http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/international/pornhub-pleads-users-to-stop-uploading-videos-of-brazil-getting-fked-by-germany-in-the-world-cup-9594287.html article from The Independent] uses the example so can the article here. The opinion on whether it should be included hinges on [[Wikipedia:Offensive_material#cite_note-typical-1|this note]]. I am unaware of any study to determine whether a ''typical Wikipedia reader'' would have an issue with ''fuck'' being in the article, or on Wikipedia in general. I would err on the side of inclusion rather than omission. I hope this helps. Thank you. [[User:PNGWantok|PNGWantok]] ([[User talk:PNGWantok|talk]]) 01:05, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
:*The article on The Independent '''does not use the word "fuck"''' (in fact, it censors it).

::Sorry, I did see that the censored it, nonetheless they still referenced it directly both in the image at the top of the article and in text within the article itself. Wikipedia, on the other hand, does not censor such words. At least that is my understanding from being a Wikipedia reader for 5 years. I'm making these comments based purely on the basis of the pornhub information being present in this Wikipedia article.
