Given the plethora of comments in the above section regarding Conservapedia being boring, is it about time to remove it from the front page, or at least drop its priority down a notch? Perhaps begin the process of merging WIGO:CP with the not-quite-yet defunct WIGO:ASK and opening the WIGO for a wider range of topics. {{:User:Armondikov/sig}} 15:07, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 
:I'd keep WIGOCP - it probably still brings us a lot of traffic. Agree with moving off the mainpage, however. Most of CP's traffic comes via here, and if we cut that avenue off at main page level, then the site will stagnate even further. I think RW has grown to the point were we can stand on our own two feet, without the ever more wobbly crutch of CP. --[[User:Psygremlin|<b><font color="blue">PsyGremlin</font></b>]]{{User:Psygremlin/sig|}} 15:11, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

A disinterested bystander writes: You seriously think you'll get much traffic when Conservapedia folds? Most of the articles on the site are as badly written as much of Cp and rather a lot of the more vociferous editors could do with reading the links at http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/free-online-grammar-resources/ [[Special:Contributions/82.23.208.15|82.23.208.15]] ([[User talk:82.23.208.15|talk]]) 22:59, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

::True, but we seen what happens when we cut off the CP feed.  A lot of our regulars, and our new users, find RW via CP.  Sure, some are just here for the WIGO and think RW is all about CP, but some settle in and become valued mainspace contributors.  I say leave it alone for now, and if someone wants to start yet another boycott, I will once again honor my promise to Kels to oppose it. {{User:Human/sig|}} 02:33, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 
:::At least drop its priority in the order the WIGOs are presented. That would be my first suggestion. Although WIGO:CP's votes go high, those aren't in line with the edit counts and the remaining three have been steadily climbing on average, from just a couple when they were introduced to +/- 15-20 quite often. Still an order of magnitude below the top rated CP comments, but not far off the more mundane CP comments. Someone with a bit more time and with willingness to do a proper analysis might be able to find out, but I'm pretty sure CP related activity here is now a minority pastime. {{:User:Armondikov/sig}} 06:36, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 
::::Eventually (and perhaps soon) CP will either die or stop being funny to watch - why pre-empt that by killing of the CP parts of RW first, rather than letting them die along with CP itself? If it's true that RW can't survive without WIGOCP, then I'd rather the death of CP itself be blamed for that, than administrators here be blamed for it. <sup>[[User:1|ONE]] / [[User_talk:1|TALK]]</sup> 09:17, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 
:::::Per LArron's statistics below and 1's comment above I don't think we should remove  WIGOCP from the main page right now, but I do think RW could definitely survive without it, [http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/index.php?namespace=101&invert=1&title=Special%3ARecentChanges this] it what it would look like. --{{User:Onion/sig}} 20:47, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

What's this with Conservapedia and homosexuality? Is there a gay click bot?  {{User:LArron/sig}} 08:16, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
 
:Well, CP ''is'' clickbot central. Another explanation this that Ken is <s>discovering teh buttseks in various men's loos</s> destroying teh buttseks on the innertubes. I'm more worried about the 15,000 people viewing our smilies page. --[[User:Psygremlin|<b><font color="blue">PsyGremlin</font></b>]]{{User:Psygremlin/sig|}} 08:43, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

:::Damn I just loaded it one more time for nothing, thanks Nx. {{User:Π/Sig|}} 08:47, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
 
::Nice work LArron!  How does one obtain such figures automatically?  For instance if you wanted to watch how much traffic [[CP:Counterexamples to Relativity]] was getting after it was mention at New Scientist?  Is it possible to strip those figures out easily so you can see it was getting X amount of views per day/hour/whatever before it was mentioned, then Y per whatever afterwards?  Do you do this through a script looking at the HTML, or something straight from MediaWiki? {{User:DeltaStar/sig|}} 22:26, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
:::Thanks!
 
:::I check CP's database every couple of weeks: it's to much effort to do so on a daily basis: I don't know of a way to get ''past'' numbers of views, I can get only the ''current'' ones... Of course, for a couple of pages, article could be monitored - using queries like
 
::::http://conservapedia.com/api.php?action=query&prop=info&titles=Counterexamples%20to%20Relativity
 
:::and {{Ken}} does so for his pet articles (though I doubt that he automatized the process in any way...)
 
:::{{User:LArron/sig}} 05:53, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 
:::::I have a plethora of CP page view data. Originally (from about Aug 2007) I just logged the top 100 pages but later (Jan 2008) logged the top 5000. So I have  pretty good idea which pages have been click botted. As the total page view count mounts up any click botting has to be done on an increasingly greater scale to have any real impact so I will probably stop at the end of the year. I've always meant to do an article on CP's page views to show how they've been manipulated. Clickbots have undoubtedly played a part but I have some circumstantial evidence that in the early days Ken may have even manually refreshed his own pages in an attempt to up the stats. As for the gay thing, at one point in 2007, 9 of the top 10 most viewed pages at CP were homosexual-related and this created a short-lived stir in the blogosphere. I can only assume that some people are still trying to resucitate that meme. {{User:Genghis Khant/sig}} 14:24, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

===A little local perspective for you===
 
Lisa Actually has a good chance of winning even as a write in. Lisa was only ever a weak republican to begin with, and had the conservatives not fetishized rino hunts they would be grateful she didn't just pull an Arlen Specter and go Dem. She is in fact their best hope of beating McAdams. Miller is nuts, (and by nuts I mean principled) and, had anyone known anything about his policy before hand, he would have never won the primary. The primary was handed to him by virtue of the amazing wedge issue on underage abortion (parental signed permission slip or court order required) that fell in his court with Lisa being prolife, but even with the Tea party and no one realizing how disastrous he would be for the Alaskan economy (Alaska is actually doing pretty well economically, even with BP eating shit [BP is huge in Alaska] we've been doing alright) and the fact that he looks like a goon (greased hair and a leather jacket) he only managed to barely squeak past. If Lisa pulls a Lieberman It'll be proof that she who the state wants, and if Lisa splits the vote and hands it to McAdams that too will be alright from her perspective because I'll bet that she would vote for him before she voted for a man who called her a whore (did I mention that he's a bit of a goon?)
 
 
 
All that having been said I don't think Miller would be a terrible guy. Unlike the tea party he actually has plans for dealing with the problem. He knows that voting out the opposition isn't going to magically fix all of our problems and that he can't miraculously rest on the Laffer curve in order to pay for everything by slashing revenues. He is well educated with a law degree from Yale and a masters in economics and a gulf war one (the popular gulf war) vet. From what I've seen of him I'm sure he would kick Andy right in the ass. What I can't figure out is what Miller and Palin have in common outside of an (R) by their names and pro-life stances.

::::::I have to butt in here.  I'm surprised that people who normally have no problem with shades of gray can be so lacking in nuance when it comes to this issue.  There have been times when religious and academic leaders have been at odds, and they have not.  Taking one modern conflict (Fundamentalist Protestants in the USA versus Everybody) and extrapolating it backwards for all time shows a dire need for some perspective.
 
::::::Christians killed the Academy, that is true, and it's a pretty big blot on Christian history.  But to blame them for the Dark Ages??  The Dark Ages were a large-scale political and economic collapse in which the Roman civic order was replaced by a warrior aristocracy who cared not at all for urban life or learning.  During that era the monasteries were the only ones who preserved learning and literacy, including the Classics.
 
::::::Even Galileo, the great science-religion morality play of our time, was much more complex than it's presented today.  Many of the religious leaders involved were squarely on the side of keeping an open scientific debate.  When a few zealous Dominicans raised hell about Galileo's heliocentrism, the Church brass made him promise to present it as a hypothesis rather than an out-and-out proven fact.  Which it was, at that point.  It always takes years of research and debate for radical new models to be accepted; so it was for the Big Bang Theory (first posed, of course, by a Catholic priest) and so it was with heliocentrism.
 
::::::Now, I of course believe that religious leaders shouldn't be allowed to do even that, but the fact is that Galileo certainly wasn't trampled under the Church's holy boots for saying something that contradicted the literal words of the Bible.  No Christian thinker then (and no thinking Christian today) takes all that cosmology literally; St. Augustine himself argued for a sort of primitive evolution.
 
::::::Galileo got stomped eventually, of course.  His personal friend, the Pope, turned against him, and it had everything to do with power politics and nothing to do with biblical literalism.  Galileo's patron was the Grand Duke of Tuscany, the Grand Duke's patron was the King of Spain, and the King was the Pope's big rival.  The Dominicans' earlier objections provided a convenient excuse.  Again, it's definitely a Bad Thing for religious leaders to play politics like that, but the story does not support the "Teh Ev0l Christians Hate teh Science" trope.
 
::::::Have religious leaders opposed science?  Yes.  Have they supported it and enlivened it?  Yes.  Have political, economic, military, and all other leaders done various things in the past to both advance and hinder scientific progress?  Yes, yes, yes.  History is complicated.  One-dimensional narratives - whether YEC or not - very rarely give you the full story.  [[User:Bluefish|Bluefish]] ([[User talk:Bluefish|talk]]) 03:16, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
 
 
Just looking at that list that Psygremlin pointed out at the top.  Roger has, as one of his 'General Denials' that 'NO "triangular trade" existed in the 17th and 18th centuries with the New World'.  However, he also lists, as a 'Specific truth that history books deny or distort' that, 'Rhode Island was the only state to separate church and state, and as a result it became the biggest importer of slaves.'  Leaving aside the fact that even his own source for that fails to give evidence of a causal link between the separation of Church and state and slavery, nor does it actually even claim such a link exists, Rhode Island, going by more reputable sources, was part of the slave trade, and a big one - as part of the triangular trade that Roger has already said didn't exist.  So, if there was no triangular trade, Rhode Island could not have been a big part of the slave trade.

:::::: The whole idea seems fallacious to me. It seems to be that the dark ages - whatever their cause - delayed scientific advancement. Is this really a problem, a missed opportunity? Only in two respects - one being that millions of people lived out miserable lives that could have been avoided if the modern age occurred earlier, and the other being that we have a responsibility to the existence of our species to advance as quickly as possible so as to protect ourselves from certain threats (such as a major earth impact).
 
:::::: But equally, if we had advanced to the modern age a thousand years earlier, the planet might now look like a barren wasteland, either ruined by the environmental destruction and climatic intervention we see today, or ruined by a war in a nuclear age that played out with very very different politics.

I can sort of see the point to Andy's [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Template:Mainpageright&curid=104397&diff=819392&oldid=819391 borked news story.] But surely news organisations have a political bias, and for a front man to go against that, would be insubordination? Especially as WJLA does appear to be a liberal station. That said, Andy's outrage at somebody being fired for being "too conservative" is ironic coming from the man who's driven away everybody except his goons for being "too liberal." --[[User:Psygremlin|<b><font color="blue">PsyGremlin</font></b>]]{{User:Psygremlin/sig|}} 16:11, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

::I disagree that Andy has a point.  First, Conservapedia has made hay out of the whole JournoList BS, and in their non-quote-mined part of their [[CP:JournoList]] article, they write, "It appears to some that journalists put liberalism before journalistic integrity, further weakening any credibility they may have had with the American people."  At the University of Indiana's School of Journalism, they parse it this way [http://journalism.indiana.edu/resources/ethics/covering-politics/freedom-of-political-expression/ in an unrelated], though relevant, case: 
 
:<blockquote>Journalists are, by profession, civic and political activists. They bring matters of importance to public attention and frame the public debate. The question is not whether journalists should be allowed to participate in public political activity, but whether or not they should be allowed to exert influence in public arenas beyond the one they already control. Because of the potential for exploitation, the answer has to be "no."[....] Journalists cannot drop professional affiliation when it is convenient for them or for their cause. People who wish to work on behalf of a particular cause should work in public relations or advocacy groups, not for the news media. Journalists should confine their public voices to their own professional arena.</blockquote>

Hello,<br />
 
First all, how did you find my email address? I erased it yesterday from the article. Did you check the history or something? Anyway, I know that there are some who work in the media like Mike Huckabee, Ben Stein, and Melanie Phillips who don't believe in evolution, but I don't know if there's anyone who goes a step further than that. By the way, my question wasn't directed to atheist and / or evolutionist news anchors like you, but I'm glad you emailed me anyway. However, you forgot to tell me the name of the news organization you're anchor of (ABC, CBS, CNN, HLN, PBS, MSNBC, CNBC, NBC, RN, ESPN, etc.) Are you an anchor for local or national news? Where and when can I watch you?<br />
 
Take care...}}

::::::::Nah, I definitely wouldn't say that RationalWiki became what dKosopedia wanted to be. While both RW and dKos have articles that may share the same ideology, dKosopedia is far more focused on being an actual encyclopedia, unlike RationalWiki, where much of the work effort is directed into socializing in some sort of fashion, whether it be analyzing others, poking fun at them, or talking about pot brownies, all of which not only appear on talk pages, but even in the articles themselves. The reason I think RationalWiki is at all successful is because its goal is not to be an encyclopedia, but rather, it serves as a social place to analyse and criticize others, and that it allows for people to openly communicate. It's what makes the place interesting, fun, and worth coming to - if RW's goal was to be a legitimate source of information in the sense that people would chose RationalWiki as a source of info over Wikipedia, it'd be treated as the same piece of shit that Conservapedia is. Wikipedia, Conservapedia, and dKosopedia are trying to drive down the same street in terms of what type of source they are - RationalWiki, on the other hand, is in a different lane. It isn't trying to be the same type of source that Wikipedia is, unlike CP and dKos, who would love to replace Wikipedia's fame. That's why they're failing.

::Please, let your commie agitprop run wild on your vandal site, but don't involve me in it. Sure, Obama's economic policies have been a boon to America. Stalin tried the same thing and murdered 100 million people, and now you deny the existence of Manilla slums created by the same socialistic policies. Obamunism has already plunged millions of people into poverty and will enslave millions more, supported by the Marxist garbage you constantly spout.

:::Yeah PsyGremlin, don't involve Rob in your ''commie agitprop''. Rob has better things to spend his time doing, such as pinning coloured strings on his bedroom wall between screenshots of CP userpages, and gently rocking in the corner. <sup>[[User:1|ONE]] / [[User_talk:1|TALK]]</sup> 14:00, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 
::::Wow.  I hadn't realised somebody had created a <s>N</s>Rob quote generator.  Nice one.  Mind you, you also need to include a section that involves a quote from somebody else that is deliberately clipped so that it appears to say the opposite of what the quoter wanted to say.  It's the only way to capture Nob-rot's true levels of deceit.--{{User:Stunteddwarf/sig}} 14:13, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 
:::::Ha! I speet on your agitprop!

Rob is crazy, but he's probably not as viciously stupid as we like to think. He's just using some pretty absurd propaganda. I'm sure Rob brushed off and ignored Bushvilles just fine. Just those crazy leftists and their propaganda. Well, guess what, Rob? Never mind, you probably wouldn't get it because you're so god damn viciously stupid...wait... fuck it.

Revision as of 15:52, 22 September 2010

I'm the Willminator user from Conservapedia. I can see that all these ad hominem and straw men attacks against me contains no substance. Again, don't even try to mess with me because you'll regret it ok. Why do you libsters like to bait other people?
