New related category: Category:Censored media

Following up on the old discussion at Talk:Censorship/Archive_3#Censored_media_.2F_category_cleanup, I have created Category:Censored media. Please help populate. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:17, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

Possible weasel words?

Part of the article says "There are many ways that censors exhibit creativity, but a specific variant is of concern in which censors rewrite texts, giving these texts secret co-authors."

Isn't 'there are many' weasel words in the same way 'many say' or 'it is commonly believed', without citation?116.93.23.41 (talk) 07:53, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

Well, I think it's more precise, so it is probably fine. What I'd worry more is whether the claim is referenced. If it is we could check the original source. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 20:43, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

There's no reference mark on it, hmm. 116.93.23.41 (talk) 01:28, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
