At the onset, at least.
That's where that comparison comes from.
in a neutral way, because things, just little tweaks of language can shift how the public sees a person, an event, an institution.
And it's a difficult task, but it was one that Wikipedia was committed to from the very beginning.
And per, I guess, your, you know, kind of your words, it's maybe deviated in that commitment to neutrality.
So can you explain how neutrality works and maybe some of, maybe an example of how that could be manipulated?

Exactly.
And you also need to steel man them.
And when I say steel man, just obviously presenting the most sound sort of valid logical reasoning for both sides of an argument.
