Concerns have been raised about the explicit sexual images and videos available on Wikipedia. Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger states that "...children using Wikipedia for research can still stumble on the vast repository of pornographic images and videos that are the encyclopedia’s most popular items." Wikipedia did put pornography filters in place, but there are still content that goes "...well beyond line art and diagrams -- there are pictures and videos depicting human genitalia and individual acts of masturbation among countless other sexual scenes." Sanger claims that "...nearly all of the most frequently viewed media files on Wikimedia servers are sexually explicit files." Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales stated that the "board is still working toward developing and putting a filter in place." In 2010, Wikipedia removed a great deal of explicit content after a Fox News report about adult content on the website.

Sanger argues that “the real problem [is] when Wikipedia features some of the most disgusting sorts of porn you can imagine, while being heavily used by children.”
