I believe the point of historical articles is to include nothing but the whole truth. Writing them biased towards one group or another will bring up questions of the credibility and authenticity of the article.

If one wanted to go for a biased tone, the article could be written as kind of document (such as a battle report or account/narrative with the point of view of a soldier involved), I think.

Otherwise, these articles shouldn't contain bias. Just like a real-life history book, we should have the real facts of what happened recorded in a neutral fashion. If we see something written that is blatantly prejudiced toward a group/faction, we start to wonder whether it's true or not.
