Go for it :) my advice is now to make a plan of exactly what you want to say and what kind of structure you'll say it in. Everyone stares when you walk in the room, they stare when you go....

First and foremost, while putting it here more easily facilitates collaboration, I would recommend GOOGLEDOCS. That way no matter where you are you can work on the paper itself as long as you have intarnetz.

Depending on what type of paper it is, you will most likely have to get more specific than just 'Censorship' - you may want to take a position (for, against, doesn't matter, some is good but not all, etc) and defend it with facts and/or examples. So there's the first bit, where do you stand on censorship? Once you know that, figure out why and present it.

For a very loose structure, think of three examples that support your position. With three examples, you have roughly one page intro, two pages per example, and a closing/summary page where you tie the three examples together with the intro.

Say your position was 'it's OK in moderation - sometimes, but not always.' Introduce censorship as a whole, and what your stance is. Your three examples: one shows how too much censorship is bad, one shows how no censorship/not enough censorship is bad, and the third shows an example of just enough censorship being good. Then in your last page you summarize and re-state your position, which has now been supported by your body of evidence via your three well chosen examples.

Too much censorship - china, north korea, no boobs on cable, etc

Not enough censorship - the internet would be more useful if all flaming/trolling could magically disappear, or be moved to 'flameland' or wtfe - flaming is fun to read for entertainment, but a pain to sift through for real, useful information. for instance reading through the hammer mapping section on SJ, you see that somebody has already asked a question that you would also like to ask. Would you rather look through three pages of people telling the OP how dumb they are for even having to ask, or only have to read one post directly after the original, with a polite and informative answer?

Good middle ground - u s a #1

If you were being *really* clever, you could link it to the current Supreme Court case that California has brought. It's an interesting one. Everyone stares when you walk in the room, they stare when you go....

I'd hesitate to give censorship such a narrow definition. While some sort of authority is necessary to enforce censorship, it is by no means limited to governments. For instance, if I see my friend Dave and he asks me to pass a message on to our mutual friend Rhonda, I then have the opportunity to censor Dave's message despite not being involved with any government; it is the transmission of Dave's message that I have authority over. Likewise, the media is not the only target of censorship, as the above example also demonstrates. Wiki defines censorship as "suppression of speech or other communication which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient to the general body of people as determined by a government, media outlet, or other controlling body."

I guess that's better than sending it to Fallout, nobody cares if Oblivion gets messed up even more.
