2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

According to a careers lecture I was just at this morning, it can be quite easy to write for NS. Well, I say easy, they're more open to accepting submissions from new writers. And you, as a writer, NEVER get to write the headlines, which explains the 'Darwin Was Wrong' fiasco. Scarlet A.pnggnostic 03:09, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

I also can't find examples of creationists actually citing the Darwin Was Wrong thing. All I can find is PZ Myers merely saying "creationists are being all stupid about it" but doesn't actually link out to so much as a clog to prove it! Therefore I've swapped the tone of that section from "creationists are idiots" to "backlash against sensationalism", which is what I think is the fairest appraisal of the situation.

Depending on timezones?[edit]

What does this mean? There's only one timezone in the UK. Ithaca8 (talk) 18:45, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

No Idea - prolly redundant. perhaps it's (late?) Wed in US when it's published in UK? Scrub it? Pippa (talk) 18:54, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
