How? You're making that claim but not supporting it at all. Do tell me how anything here is biased towards a progressive mindset: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_vie...

I'm not referring to Wikipedia's written definition of NPoV, I'm referring to its application. Many Wikipedia articles in their various states (past and present) don't fit into any kind of "neutral viewpoint" ideal. They may appear as such, of course, to one who shares the bias; in that case, Wikipedia's content must seem like a bastion of truly neutral rationality.
