I've put the deleted materal into a separate article linked to Conservapedia and RationalWiki. I hope that's an acceptable compromise. Proxima Centauri 12:36, 15 November 2008 (EST)

I don't really see how it's a comprimise... there's still a page about why Conservapedia is bad. How is this different than before? JazzMan 13:37, 15 November 2008 (EST)
You're a Conservapedian. I'm as RationalWikian. Neither of us is neutral. Not everybody will click onto the link to this page. Therefore it's a compromise. Here administrators don't inforce their decisions as happens at Conservapedia. Neutral admins will decide this. Proxima Centauri 14:38, 15 November 2008 (EST)
I'm also a sysop on RationalWiki. What's your point?
This is linked to on Conservapedia, so even though not everyone will read it, it's readily available to anyone who wants to look up Conservative encyclopedias.
What is this wiki about? Is it about directing people towards wikis, or providing (one sided) criticisms of wikis? I checked out a couple popular wikis as a way to compare and see what a "good" wikiindex article would be. English Wikipedia, the wiki, is described as "The English language Wikipedia, free encyclopedia that anyone can edit, neutral point of view, NPOV". Uncyclopedia has no criticism, Encyclopædia Dramatica has no criticism. RationalWiki has a "criticism" section, but it's used to criticise Conservapedia. The only criticism section I can find is in AboutUs, but it is stated in plain, non-inflamatory language, and AboutUs was given a chance to refute the criticism section. My "bias" doesn't change these facts, does it? JazzMan 18:48, 15 November 2008 (EST)
