At what point do deletions of images, paragraphs, etc., cross the border from edits to becoming either violations of NPOV or even vandalism? I keep running into one editor who deletes whole sections of information with no explanation or a simple dismissal, e.g., "untrue assertion," "no evidence for this," or sometimes appeal to authority. I think there is an honest disagreement about the subject matter under editing, but simply deleting inconvenient facts or assertions is imho bad, and possibly unacceptable, behavior.
