::::::So how exactly does this POV thing work? I'm just trying to understand. Do some things that align with that POV not need citation as much as things that are at odds with the POV? I figured that the POV meant that it would just focus on findings that support it, but I thought they still needed citation. I guess I'm just trying to figure out how this whole POV thing works in terms of citation. [[User:KatieKomori|KatieKomori]] 10:19, 3 December 2012 (EST)

:::::::That's pretty much it.  I dunno if its quite as brazen as that, but essentially things that conform to the POV require less stringent citations than those that do not.  That's true in general by the way.  The maxim "''We demand strict proof for opinions we dislike, but are satisfied with mere hints for what we're inclined to accept''" is unfortunately extremely accurate.  --[[User:DamianJohn|DamianJohn]] 01:46, 4 December 2012 (EST)
