All Wikipedia articles and other encyclopedic content must be written from a '''neutral point of view''' ('''NPOV'''), representing fairly and without bias all significant views that are [[Wikipedia:Attribution|attributable to reliable published source(s)]]. For guidance on how to make an article conform to the neutral point of view, see the [[Wikipedia:NPOV tutorial|NPOV tutorial]]; For examples and explanations that illustrate key aspects of this policy, see [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/FAQ]].
 
Neutral point of view is a [[meta:Foundation_issues|fundamental Wikipedia principle]]. According to Wikipedia co-founder [[Jimmy Wales]], '''NPOV is "absolute and non-negotiable."'''<ref>"A few things are absolute and non-negotiable, though. NPOV for example." in [http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2003-November/008096.html statement by Jimbo Wales in November 2003] and, [http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2006-April/044379.html in this thread] reconfirmed by [http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2006-April/044388.html Jimbo Wales in April 2006] in the context of lawsuits.</ref>
 
This page, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, is one of Wikipedia's two core content policies. The other is [[Wikipedia:Attribution]]. Jointly, these policies determine the type and quality of material that is acceptable in the main [[Wikipedia:Namespace|namespace]]. Because the policies are complementary, they should not be interpreted in isolation from one another, and editors should try to familiarize themselves with both. The principles upon which these policies are based are non-negotiable and cannot be superseded by other policies or guidelines, or by editors' consensus. Their policy pages may be edited only to improve the application and explanation of the principles.
