Note: there is no [[ontological distinction]] between research and opinion: research is the opinion of a researcher. And anyone can be a "researcher". Thus, opinions are indistinguishable from other forms of research - except that one could say "facts are research, and analysis is opinion. [[Critical Point of View]] articles that don't even pretend to be [[NPOV|neutral]]. These are part of "research" but clearly marked. They are often drawn from outside text, in the form of [[campaign]]s for and against some entity, such as [[company]], [[product group]], [[product|individual product]], [[area]] ([[country]], [[ecoregion]]) or a piece of [[advertising]] which is clearly promotional. An opinion starts as the lowest-credibility form of research and those who provide it will often be engaged with the [[Lowest Troll]] to determine if the authors or transmitters or republishers are [[funded troll]]s being paid to trash or promote some commercial service. | |||

An important test of the publish wiki is that it must be able to filter out the opinions the [[Consumerium Governance Organization]] can't sanction from the research that it exists to broadcast. That can't be done by simply asking or requiring that contributors "properly" label it! Neutrality is always a fight. | |||
