Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia is not a soapbox

merge from What Wikipedia is not?
I propose copying to this page the much longer, better-developed list of things falling under the "Wikipedia is not a soapbox" sub-heading on What Wikipedia is not. This page needs fleshing out. Comments? -- Rbellin|Talk 04:22, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)


 * I went ahead and copied the list over. Please comment or revert if necessary. -- Rbellin|Talk 22:16, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Requests for arbitration/RFC
An important policy discussion has started concerning ways in which our content-related polices, such as NPOV, No original research and Verifiability could be better enforced. I've made a proposal to give the Arbitration Committee the ability to consult Wikipedia users who are knowledgeable in  subject-areas that apply to cases before them. Such consultation is needed due to the fact that the ArbCom does not by itself have the requisite knowledge to easily tell what is NPOV, original research, or a fringe idea in every field. Please read my proposal at Requests for arbitration/RFC and comment. Thank you! --mav 02:48, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
