Electowiki has a policy somewhat similar to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view Wikipedia's NPOV policy]. However, due to the subjective nature of the topics at hand, it's hard to have a strict NPOV policy without becoming a clone of Wikipedia. Thus, the policy regarding point-of-view is one of "EPOV". "EPOV" is "Electowiki Point-of-View" policy. More about EPOV can be found on [[Electowiki:EPOV]].

== Editorial board ==
=== Editorial board ===
Since it's January 2005 inception, Electowiki has had an ad hoc editorial board, with de facto membership based on momentum. History:
* 2005: [[User:DanKeshet]] and [[User:RobLa]]
* 2006 through 2018: [[User:RobLa]]
* 2019: [[User:Psephomancy]] and [[User:RobLa]]


See [[Electowiki:EPOV#Editorial_board]]
[[User:RobLa]] would like to formalize this somehow, but as of December 2019, hasn't declared a process for achieving this.
