So, I think that such a project works well with the concept of NPOV. I think
you can break the site into two distinct parts.

Part 1: You collect opinions of various sorts in various ways.
Part 2: You organize them in terms of their relative significance to each
other and summarize them in a disinterested voice.

This would be a lot like Wikibooks and Wikipedia; people write stuff on
Wikibooks and then people cite those books on Wikipedia.
