488:@Herkus: That I said it is not NPOV does not mean that I think it is the wrong POV. Please understand the difference. Defilement is a highly loaded term, which (although certainly correct in this situation) is still not a neutral point of view. The sentences about Borussia are highly positive towards the organization (buzzwords such as "unbiased" vs. the "taboo" they are fighting, for instance); this is not related to who is using the building. I was pinged to give a third opinion. If you disagree with it, perhaps this can be withdrawn. —

Prussian heritage in the area, which had been tabooed for decades in Communist Poland." only serve to promote the organization, rather than impart information about the building; the rest of that paragraph is also decidedly pro-Borussia. The parts about the Nazis and transition of the area to Poland is needed, but needs to be contextualized better. —
388:. We should present what reliable sources say. Borussia was founded in 1990 because some people in Olsztyn were tired of all that propaganda and lies they were told throughout more than 40 years. I know you disagree with them, but that's completely unimportant. How are the aims of Borussia described by reliable sources? If you know any RS claiming they praised traditional

Please assume good faith. If there is a source why wasn't it provided and attributed to German publication about Poland that alleges so? And statements that a foundation like
Borussia is "unbiased" aren't neutral at all. In fact they point out to serious POV problems, since it implies other research

I too share concerns over NPOV in this article. Terms such as "defiled" and "murdered" are more loaded than "destroyed" or "killed". NPOV applies even to the greatest war crimes, so we should be careful how we phrase things. Sentences such as "Borussia is a Polish

You claim that it's POVish to call the
Holocaust murder and you regard describing the defilement of a cemetery (which is what happened in 1938 as you admit) "not a neutral point of view". The cemetery wasn't destroyed in 1938, it was defiled. If you know a better term, please tell us, but as I

Every single sentence in this article is based on sources and, as Peter I. Vardy already emphasized, written in a perfectly neutral tone. Especially the destruction of the cemetery after the anti-semitic campaign in Poland of 1968 is clearly backed by the source (Michele

Thank you Crisco for voicing your concerns similar to concerns of other editors here.Unfortunately at this stage the article is loaded with POV phrases such the one about
Borussia, and as such fails the nomination. This has now been pointed out by unconnected

You might discuss that with one of the "Borussia" founders. Our job is to mirror what reliable sources say and "unbiased research" is how reliable sources describe the aim of "Borussia". It's not a matter of neutrality just because
