I remember a wise administrator saying that the litmus test for NPOV is that, if after you read it, you cannot tell where the author's sympathies lie, it's NPOV.
After reading the section on the FARMS controversy (and knowing nothing about the issues involved before having read the piece), I can most assuredly say that the author's sympathies lie with Signature Books, and against FARMS. Of nine items currently in quotes (including titles of articles!), all seem designed to make FARMS look foolish or belligerent.
I am therefore putting an NPOV tag on the section, and paring back the most blatant NPOV material from the section.

The way that both the advisory board and the editorial board are described is full of needless puff words and unjustified promotionalism. I have tried to tone it down, but there still needs to be more work. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:37, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
