Hi Gocer,

The part of the ToU that applies is:  "You agree not to use the Service to: [...] Post or transmit any content that is obscene, pornographic, abusive, offensive, [or] profane". Of course, there's a lot of variation in how that might be interpreted, but as we are a US company we have to keep to US mores (even for wikia created for people in France).

And that means that bare breasts, in particular visible nipples, are outside what we generally allow. There are a few exceptions - we take into account the context of the images, the topic, the need for the nudity to illustrate the topic, and whether the wiki as a whole is inside the ToU.

So a small amount of nudity might be OK on a wiki that is not aimed at children, if the context of that nudity is appropriate. For example, if Lady Gaga has an official album cover that shows nipples (and I'm guessing she does) it's likely we would allow that. But the large numbers of semi-nude pictures that have been uploaded don't fall into that group. The photography and the subject can easily be shown in other ways, and people wanting to see the nudity aren't a strong enough reason to change that.

I hope you understand, and can find suitable alternatives to these images.
