Wikipedia establish that if a group of persons has an opinion and another has got its own opinion, Wikipedia should take care of both (with different importance following the diffusione of the opinion).
Not all could be verified, but all could have a reason, if this reason has got some references it's a good point.
In any case the original points of view are not accepted.

When a point of view is "verified" by sources, it does not mean that the point of view is correct. There are sources that say that the holocaust is a lie. If this is true because of there being sources that say that this is true, then there is a problem with the sources. When you then say that a court of law proved that something is not true, than it is a known fact that the world is flat.
