This is the guiding principle here at Wikipedia. An encyclopedia article must not advocate a position on any given issue; rather, it must describe the various positions fairly and accurately.

[edit] Wikipedias in all languages

Wikipedia aims to be an encyclopedia encompassing all languages. If your language is not yet active, recruit a few friends and get the ball rolling!
