Wikidemon has done a great job creating and fleshing out this article! Congratulations.
I know the article grew, indirectly, over misunderstanding of how the term was used about the organization ACORN, and that example is featured in the article. It would be good to add more examples to show the range of where the tax status is disputed in actual tax investigations. This is just notational for now. But a couple prominent examples strike me (and I should find citations as soon as I have a chance): The tax status of the Mormons (Church of Latter Day Saints) came into dispute with its active lobbying and campaigning around California's Proposition 8; Scientology had a long and convoluted challenge to its nonprofit status (though this may be peripheral to the "nonpartisan" matter, and not fit here).

What about Media Matters? They say they're 501(c)(3), yet they openly admit they're liberal. How are more people not "Alleging Partisanship"? 69.47.28.209 ( talk) 03:00, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I think the scope of this article ought to cover more than just the legal element. Nonpartisanism can also refer to things like CNN trying to be balanced or any other number of cultural aspects. - Sdkb ( talk) 21:24, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Moved to proposed title. No explicit opposition after 22 days including relisting. No prejudice against proposals for even better titles or merging. Station1 ( talk) 04:05, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
Nonpartisanism in the United States → Nonpartisan organizations in the United States – This article has always, from the time it was created at the title Nonpartisan (American organizations), been about categories of tax-exempt organizations in the United States that are not allowed to engage in political campaigning – not about U.S. non-partisanship generally. In 2013, a former editor moved it to the current title because the original one wasn't a WP:NOUN but otherwise left it only about tax status. (I am open to other suggested titles, as I'm having difficulty thinking of something concise. Political activities of nonprofits in the United States? Restrictions on ... ?)
