'''Category:Wikis with a strong viewpoint''' — many [[wiki]] editors are frustrated with the [[:Category:NPOV|neutral point of view]] (NPOV) required in [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]]. To meet this, other wikis are developing where a specific {{tag|PointOfView|point of view}} (POV) is acceptable, or even required. Wikis with a strong viewpoint are sometimes political, religious, or secular, or may have other viewpoints such as environmentalism, or other [[:Category:SpecialInterest|special interests]]. Some wikis with a strong viewpoint tolerate dissent. Others delete material that disagrees with their viewpoint, and treat edits against their viewpoint as vandalism. | |||
Editors will frequently be comfortable with a wiki where they agree with the prevailing sentiment. Editors who want to argue and disagree with the established viewpoint of a wiki risk their work being deleted and can risk being banned. | Editors will frequently be comfortable with a wiki where they agree with the prevailing sentiment.
