I initially blocked this IP for a week after observing an extremely POV-pushing edit which I took for vandalism in deliberate disregard for neutral Point of view (NPOV) policies. Further observations of previous edits made were also inappropriately POV-pushing but could indicate a simple unfamiliarity with NPOV policies, which promote presentations of accurate quotes but without extreme POV editorializing regarding statements presented. I reduced the block considerably, to a period of 15 minutes, and simply would point out that Wikimedia's NPOV policies should be examined and properly respected. Violations of these policies can result in far more extensive blocks. ~ Kalki·· 06:12, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
