Forum:Cursing on Mainspace pages

I don't know about you guys, but when I see the F-bomb on the Shepherd page, it makes me cringe a little bit. I know I curse in blogs and talk pages and I know alot of you guys have, too. Following my block, I am going to try to limit my cursing to when I think it is necessary, but when I see a cuss word on an article, I think it makes the Wiki look less welcoming and proffesional. I know we can't prevent cursing in blogs and talk pages, but we can prevent it on mainspace pages, because I know that over 75% of the non-users that visit this Wiki don't know and/or don't care that there are blogs full of curse words on this wiki. Therefore, I would like to propose that we censor most or all of the curse words on Articles. For example, on the Shepherd page, instead of "Five years ago, I lost 30,000 men in the blink of an eye. And the world just fuckin' watched.", It would say: "Five years ago, I lost 30,000 men in the blink of an eye. And the world just f***** watched."

Thanks,
