I am not certain that neutral point of view applies to all Wikimedia

subject while ignoring others, for example. It is difficult to apply the
concept of "neutrality" to images and other media, some of which is
explicitly non-neutral (see the Jyllands-Posten Muhammed images). I am not
sure that "neutral point of view" applies to Wiktionary at all.
