Thread:Talk:Personal image filter/Neutrality/reply (2)

Tacking the filtering system onto existing categories would make the Commons category system the target for endless reversion wars. A separate category tree can be protected against vandalism, wars are then carried out over individual images, but that would not affect the Commons project (an image can be added/removed ad-infinitum to the new category tree without affecting anything else) - as opposed to the extensive and rapid mayhem that could be wrought by fiddling with the Commons category structure to alter what was filtered.
