However, it is generally preferred that you use the neutrality dispute template, and explain your reasons on the discussion page. The "POV check" is intended for articles which you have edited to be neutral, but where you are not sure whether you have overlooked something, or for those which are, in your opinion, obviously not neutral.

In order to make sure that this template cannot be used to effectively brand articles as non-neutral without a justification, it may be removed by anyone if they feel that the issue has been resolved. Please do not edit war over the use of this template. Instead, if you disagree with its removal, explain your reasons on the discussion page, and replace it with the neutrality dispute template, {{NPOV}}.
