'''Category:Wikis with a strong viewpoint''' — many wiki [[editor]]s are frustrated with the [[:Category:NPOV|neutral point of view]] (NPOV) required in [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]].  To meet this, other [[wiki]]s are developing where a specific {{tag|point of view}} (POV) is acceptable, or even required.  Wikis with a strong viewpoint are sometimes [[:Category:Politics|political]], [[:Category:Religion|religious]], or secular; or may have other viewpoints such as [[:Category:Environmentalism|environmentalism]], or other [[:Category:Special interest|special interests]].  Some [[WhatIsWiki|wikis]] with a strong viewpoint tolerate dissent.  Others delete material that disagrees with their viewpoint, and treat edits against their viewpoint as [[vandal]]ism.  However, they may all be subjected to '[[Edit War|edit warring]]'.

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.
