Acronyms
- Original
I really do not think that this article is adequately NPOV because it only summarizes one side.
- He is right. It also seems to contain OR which is not allowed in policy.
- With the acronym removed and "translation" placed in brackets
I really do not think that this article is adequately — (The Constabulary has removed an initialism here. Please replace this with plain English. ) — [neutral] because it only summarizes one side.
- He is right. It also seems to contain Template:Soup [original research] which is not allowed in policy.

Images
It may actually be better to just deal with this matter off-wiki, I'm not sure.
The first is for media already deleted. The second is for images that need to be deleted but you are first giving the user a chance to correct the problem (should be used sparingly, and reserved generally for new and possibly naive contributors).
Hi. We appreciate very much your contributions to the Citizendium. I was hoping you could help clear up a matter about the images you recently uploaded. They are lacking clear copyright and source data and need to have it as soon as practicable to avoid deletion. To fix the problem, please review the images you uploaded (click on "my contributions" at the upper-right to re-trace your steps or see the links I added) in light of Images Help—Copyrights. If you need additional help, just ask a constable or leave a message on my talk page and I'll be more than glad to assist. —
Include acronym in template?
How about writing the template to include the particular acronym? This would give more versatility down the road for how you wish to present these templates. For example:
- I really do not think that this article is adequately {{Acronym|NPOV}} because it only summarizes one side.
This template could then include any text you wish that is specific to that particular acronym or just include the specific acronym in a generic text. Best it can be changed at a later date if desired. Chris Day (talk) 13:27, 16 April 2007 (CDT)
