| Ludwigs suggested the FAQ might need to be brought in line with recent changes to NPOV. I wanted to just do a non-policy clean-up first to get a better idea of what we were dealing with. I generally just shortened phrases and clarified the language to be more direct. I left ASF and Pseudoscience alone, since they are more touchy at the moment. QG made the comment that the FAQ had been "weakened", but I think that is a misreading of the change. I'm curious if there are some more specific comments or other observations. ] (]) 05:14, 26 October 2010 (UTC) | |||

| :I have no idea where it came from but it it's been around a while, and it seems to be a spillover for extraneous bits and a clarification area for common objections. I assume it has 'essay' status, as in whatever it says is only supposed to explain NPOV and any difference between them would obviously defer to NPOV. Wouldn't it be weirder not to link to the NPOV faq from NPOV? ] (]) 03:53, 25 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
| ::I dug around and it was originally part of the NPOV policy proper. It was semi-boldly spun out which drew no objections, since it's very essay-like. At one point someone tagged it with a policy tag which was challenged by quite a few editors after someone finally noticed the tag. This became the subject of an RfC that drew very poor participation, and it was eventually untagged because there was no real consensus to keep it tagged as policy. The main arguments for it were based on its coverage of fringe pseudoscience, which seems to have been subsumed both back into NPOV and other guidelines. I'm not sure it's kept up with consensus since it was spun off. ] (]) 05:18, 25 November 2010 (UTC) | |||

NPOV and gender pronouns
Is the proposition "One ought to refer to people by their prefered pronouns" not a proposition Misplaced Pages should remain neutral towards according to NPOV? 212.55.46.63 (talk) 20:02, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
- Are there any reliable sources that indicate that misgendering people is useful discourse? Should we consider whether calling other users slurs is NPOV also? Not sure I understand the purpose of this question. Ashvio (talk) 09:42, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
