I would have thought that to start with we will strive
to host anything we can (that is informative to some
extent) and then worry about backing down and finding
alternatives when big organisations start getting
tough on us. If we're asked to remove an article,
unless we think we have a case we remove it, and avoid
trouble until we can find a way out of it. But still
host it until we're asked not to. Let's not diminish
the value of the project for possible future problems
that could be easily solved (in the short term).
