Q1:Isn't the use of the terms "conspiracy theories" and "fringe" in the article title and body a violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on neutrality? A1: No. Reliable sources have treated and referred to the topic as a fringe conspiracy theory, rather than a legitimate controversy. The article reflects these sources as per Misplaced Pages's policy of verifiability. Consensus on the article title has been established through a RFC and has been repeatedly reaffirmed since. Q2:Can we discuss renaming the article or removing the "fringe" labeling? A2: Yes. Consensus can change, so new perspective on this issue is welcome, but please keep in mind that unless new references in reliable sources claim that the theories are mainstream and no longer fringe, it is unlikely that a change in concensus would form.
