When we say "Homeopathy is a pseudoscience." we are also providing information by writing down a true statement. If I may paraphrase a couple of sentences from a certain sci-fi franchise: "The first duty of every Wikipedian is to the truth, scientific truth, historical truth and personal truth. It is the guiding principle of Wikipedia."
This quotation may exist somewhere, but a Google search results in this return: 'Your search - Wikipedia "historical truth and personal truth" - did not match any documents'
Who says that and in what context?
It's easily found in Google, and the OP indicated it was a paraphrase: "The first duty of a Wikipedian is to the truth--be it scientific truth, historical truth, PERSONAL truth. It is the guiding principle on which Wikipedia was founded!"
