The Five Pillars
Those governing principles are known as The Five Pillars. One of the most important is Neutral Point of View or NPOV. This means that in articles on Judgepedia:
- Views should be represented without bias
- "Assert facts, including facts about opinions, but do not assert the opinions themselves," as it says on Wikipedia.[1]
- Do not give undue weight to one viewpoint
- Exercise fairness of tone
- Good research matters, as do verifiability and reliability of sources
- Beyond that, see Creating useful articles on Judgepedia
