==[[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view]]==

Wikipedia articles should present the claims and opinions appearing in the published body of reliable sources, infairly, proportionproportionately, toand theiras prominencefar as possible without editorial bias.

==[[Wikipedia:No original research]]==

Claims must be verifiable in reliable references; consequently, editors may not insert their opinion or analysis of a subject into Wikipedia articles, explicitly or through presentation.

==[[Wikipedia:Notability]]==

Wikipedia articles require enough reliable independent sources to justify a complete article. There are subjects that possess enough sources to build some kind of article, but [[WP:NOT|what Wikipedia is not]] still applies.
