I can't imagine much of a move on the mailing list or on Wikipedia itself for actually deleting the LINKS to the images.  That is probably not a viable option.

Please for the family of the Berg's remove the links that show the 
beheading,I know it generates great traffic. This is someone's son and 
brother. Imagine the pain and grief they are going through,is that not 
enough. Report on the greatness this 26 yr old sent out to do in this 
world. Your site is wonderful but, think of it as if this were your own 
family and this was all over the web. I am not even a family member but, 
cannot endure the fathom their pain at this time. Please re-think the links 
to the actual beheading.

Thanks
