Neutrality and objectivity
This Wiki should be an informative place that allows an open exchange of information. For this to work, users must observe a couple of ground rules. This not only affects articles on discussion pages, but primarily the style of writing in your own articles. The following should therefore be avoided:
- Malicious slander,
- Personal insults,
- Typical troll expressions,
- Intentional misinformation.
In terms of neutrality and objectivity, we follow the same guidelines as Wikipedia. Refer to the article there entitled Neutral point of view!
