Hi,
With the caveat that I haven't looked carefully at either the AN discussion, the RFC, nor the article in question...
Quoting Conrad Dunkerson conrad.dunkerson@worldnet.att.net:
To me that looks like the >admin< was violating NPOV by trying to write the article from the 'most popular point of view' rather than the NEUTRAL point of view...
...it would be easy to (mis?)read the above as a statement that we are attempting to find some sort of absolute neutrality between points of view. It isn't a violation of [[WP:NPOV]] to write a synthesis of mainstream thinking and identify fringe views as fringe views. Our actual policy goes into some detail about this, and takes a much less naive view of neutrality than is often attributed to it.
