Place of interest/tourist attractions
[edit]This section has several lists of tourist attractions. Inclusion criteria would seem to be that the item is a tourist attraction and it is located in or very near Osaka. Recently Tobita was removed by an editor who was offended that a red-light district was listed in the entertainment category and felt that it shouldn't be listed as a tourist attraction at all. So it was removed entirely rather than adjusting the sub-category it was listed in.
Wikipedia is not censored. We don't white-wash articles to avoid the mention of things that might offend people or reflect poorly on the reputation of a subject. It is fairly easy to find sources that confirm that Tobita is a tourist attraction. While prostitution is prohibited (as a legal matter, perhaps not in practice) it appears that additional forms of entertainment are provided in Tobita. Many of the entries in the entertainment sub list are areas of restaurants, bars and clubs offering nightlife options. It seems a good fit for Tobita. However, after looking at List of tourist attractions in Amsterdam I'm inclined to put Tobita back in a separate sub-list: 'Red-light districts'.
Wikipedia does not exist to right great wrongs. Gab4gab (talk) 12:57, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
- I agree with this. It should be a separate category and not just lumped in with entertainment in general. Signed, John Gillnitz 2.0 — Preceding unsigned comment added by John Gillnitz2.0 (talk • contribs) 23:22, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
