One way to state the NPOV policy is that it encourages people to use a
Hegelian dialectic. I wish the NPOV policy could just say "Use the
Hegelian dialectic". That whole thing about "neutrality" is delicate
and confusing otherwise.
Later today, I'm going to take a look at the pages
in question. I hope
that by then you have gotten out of the warrior mind-set and have
accepted Jimbo's NPOV policy.
I haven't edited those articles for some hours; the uproar was
exhausting, and my sources will take a while to gather. I know what I
know, but tracking down all the sources that form my gestalt is a lot of
work!
Because a "clutchless" Wikipedia won't
get us to our destination any
faster then standard transmission (of facts). Get it? ;-)
*groan* I never thought my handle contained so many puns. Keep 'em
coming!
