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!
Donations so far: $8765.50Goal: $10000

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam. Why'd they change it? I can't say, some people just liked it better that way! Istanbul (not Constantinople) (talk) 00:45, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
Yeah, them filthy British took Nieuw-Amsterdam from us.--JorisEnter (talk) 00:47, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
So take me back to Constantinople. No, you can't go back to Constantinople. Been a long time gone,Constantinople. Why did Constantinople get the works? That's nobody's business but the Turks! Istanbul (not Constantinople) (talk) 00:52, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
