[Home]Summary of the debate about the neutral point of view

HomePage | Recent Changes | Preferences

In the interests of summing the debate up (so we don't keep running over the same issues over and over again), let's together develop a concise summary of the arguments that have been raised for and against the Wikipedia policy that we write from a neutral point of view.
Against - People use it to remove information which is unkind but true, especially in biography. You can write that some-one is talented but if you write that they are a no-talent it is removed as bias.
I would be only too happy to reply to help develop a draft and to develop replies. I am firmly persuaded that very many objections to a nonbias policy stem from a failure to understand it properly. Something similar to what was done on Wikipedia subpages pros and cons page would be really great. --Larry Sanger
