Although I may have a slightly more liberal attitude toward NOR; I would still view NPOV as having equally high sources. To me citing sources is implicit in verifiability.
You'd have thought so. But we still could not achieve consensus to delete this unsourced monstrosity: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Cleveland_steam...
See how the deleters cited policy while the keepers simply asserted "it is true" or that deleting it would be "censorship"? If it is true, surely there must be ''some'' reliable source, but none has been presented even after two AfDs - a process which often results in speedy resolution of that particular problem.
So once again we have kept by default an article which is completely unverified, and given the lack of verifying evidence presented at two AfDs almost certainly unverifiable.
Perhaps like Donkey Punch it will hang around until it achieves some kind of tenuous reality - sexcruft seems to be one area where protologisms are allowed on Wikipedia.
