Hi everyone, how neutral is the article supposed to be when it's just highlighting the achievements of an athlete? [[User:Toluwalope Joseph Obasa|Toluwalope Joseph Obasa]] ([[User talk:Toluwalope Joseph Obasa|talk]]) 07:49, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

:Hello and welcome.  The purpose of a Wikipedia article is not to "highlight achievements"; it is to summarize what independent [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] choose on their own to say about a topic, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of [[WP:N|notability]], like [[WP:BIO|a notable person]].  That said, there is a difference between saying "John Doe won a gold medal at the Olympics" to "John Doe, the greatest athlete in history, brilliantly won a gold medal at the Olympics, capping off his incredible career".  Just write in a [[WP:NPOV|neutral point of view]] without embellishment or talking up the subject. [[User:331dot|331dot]] ([[User talk:331dot|talk]]) 08:05, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
