How can neutrality be achieved?
editTalking with other contributors is a great way to find out why there is a dispute over an article's neutrality. Ideas and POVs can be shared and ultimately the disputed fact or point can be fixed if it is incorrect or, when dealing with a controversial issue, various legitimate sources can be cited in the article.
Historians commonly cite many sources in books because there are and will always be disputes over history. Contributors on Wikipedia can do the same thing, thus giving readers a broad spectrum of POVs and opinions.
Additionally, there are several steps one can take to resolve a NPOV dispute:
- Please remember to assume good faith
- Politely point out the perceived problem either on the article's talk page or the user's talk page
- Consider filing a request for comment
- Get a third opinion
- File a report at NPOV noticeboard
- File a report at Biographies of Living persons noticeboard (if the article features information about living people
- File a report at fringe theories noticeboard (if the article covers or features fringe theories)
- Other options available to resolve such situations explained at dispute resolution.

Articles to improve
edit- Ulcerative Colitis - featured possible
- Muhammad Muhsin Khan
- Split time line in Al-Shabaab (militant group) - timeline is 35-45% of the page length
WikiProject Medicine/Gastroenterology task force

Looks through most notable in terrorism portal[2] & scan for POV issues (Some articles very prop-american and others pro-islamist)
Al-Qaeda portal[3] in shabby state (delete? if not being maintained or serving purpose) - look at discussion for ISIL portal for help[4]
Enquire about creating an islamist org portal? - Will help group together terrorism and islamist organistations (e.g. HT, JI, AQ, ISIL, Boko Haram, Shabab, Taliban etc) and also avoid use of non-neutral word (see Shauer & Scahill)
Assess notability and if pass --> add content: Islamic contract law (look at g.scholar)
People reported to be born in the Kaaba
Useless article - ascertain notability in view of deletion, otherwise just clean up
Articles with serious concerns
editHadih of the pond of Khumm - use public domain encyclopedia and brill online to clean up this joke

Article cleanup (easy to do but read MOS first)
