Quoting from WP:ROWN: "Only revert obvious vandalism. Instead of removing or reverting changes or additions you may not like, add to and enhance them while following the principle of preserving information and viewpoints. . . . Even in instances where you know the other editor's viewpoint is dead wrong, the fact that some people have this viewpoint can be relevant in itself, and their contributions might be expandable into a useful addition to the article."

If you feel some of the material in the article about Noua Dreaptă is biased, a more acceptable thing to do (rather than simply vandalizing the article by deleting the parts you disagree with) would be to reword the text to make it clear that it represents one viewpoint on a controversial topic, and to add new material explaining other sides of the controversy. If you can include links to sources (third parties not directly connected to Noua Dreaptă) that dispute what you feel are unkind claims being made against the organization, by all means please include those.

The goal here would be to have an article that tries to be fair in presenting both sides of the controversy, without taking any side in the dispute — that is, an article which both proponents and opponents of Noua Dreaptă would acknowledge (albeit perhaps grudgingly) as representing a sincere, neutral attempt to describe the group. Read (or re-read) Wikipedia's policy on a "neutral point of view" (NPOV), as well as the policy on "revert wars".

If you're not sufficiently comfortable expressing yourself in English — or if you feel you have too strong an opinion about Noua Dreaptă to be able to write about it in an unbiased, neutral fashion — then please feel free to contribute to the article's talk page and let someone else have a shot at improving the fairness of the article.
