At Talk:Democratic_backsliding_in_the_United_States#V-Dem_is_not_mainstream, a user with experience in the topic expressed concern about the use of the scale in Democratic backsliding in the United States. Their perspective does not match that presented in this article, and therefore I can infer that there may be a neutrality issue. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:37, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm removing the tag as the article seems fine as is; the tone is ok and it does not really have any academic reception whatever so you can't argue criticism is disproportionately omitted. I don't think banners should be overused and in this case, although the article could certainly stand improvement, it does not seem appropriate. (t · c) buidhe 05:41, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

First, the article sounds like an advert for its 'measure of democracy'. Secondly, 'democracy' is subjective. For example, Singapore may call itself a democratic republic, but in reality its political culture is extremely authoritarian and right-wing.118.211.76.187 (talk) 19:58, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about this particular institute and its methodology. Disputes with that specific methodology does not make the covering of it inaccurate. CMD (talk) 21:04, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the article is about the index, I will split the article. HudecEmil (talk) 22:18, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
