Erik:

How would you feel if the linked images had a disclaimer saying 
something to this effect:

The following images have been placed on a separate page because they 
MAY be consiered disturbing and/or offensive. It is Wikipedia policy not 
to take a position on whether the following images are in fact 
disturbing or offensive or not (See [[Wikipedia:Neutral Point of 
View]]). However, to avoid disturbing or offending those users to whom 
the images are disturbing or offensive, they have been placed on a 
separate page.

Would that be an satisfactorily explicit endorsement of NPOV while at 
the same time preventing unnecessary offense?
