Keep up to date with all the insanity at extremist Christian conservative blog Conservapedia right here. This page is for rolling reports of the strange, contradictory or humorous activity at Conservapedia.

All-time classics worth preserving for eternity are saved at Best of Conservapedia. The "up/down" voting system (click on the green and red arrows!) is how we pick what should go there.[1]
Add new contributions to the top of this list, and copy the formatting carefully so the polls work properly. Each new entry gets an ID number one higher than the previous one.
Please check older entries to avoid duplication - especially if you see something that's been going on for hours - there's a good chance that someone else has seen it and added it already.
Do not remove items from the list unless you believe they are legally slanderous or otherwise likely to be "detrimental to RationalWiki". Comment out (<!-- WIGO-->) an item if you think it's really an issue. If you think an item is not worthwhile, just vote it down - "one man's boredom is another man's lulz".
What is going on?
- "911, what's your emergency?" "I run a conservative encyclopedia, and I'm reporting a vulgar vandal." "How vulgar?" "He put the word 'penis' into an article." "Is that all?" "He also put a link to 4chan.org into an article." "OK, we'll send a squad car out right away. Thank you for calling."
- Conservapedia's average IQ takes a hit as DanH quits in protest over the attempts to portray Obama as less than fully Christian.
- DinsdaleP: Instead of assuming what Lenski thinks, why not give him time to respond himself? Andy: Okay, I checked my watch, and it's time to STFU! Update: Thou shalt not point out that I painted myself into a corner - or else!
- "The only way this can be settled is if we have access to the genetic sequences of the bacteria colonies so that we can apply CSI techniques and determine if these "potentiated genotypes" originated through blind chance or intelligence"[1]
- Bugler tells PJR that he's not the ombudsman and shouldn't try to be!
- Apparently, PJR does not know Yiddish.
- DanH is really not thrilled about CP's apparent position on the Obama-Muslim issue.
- Congratulations, sysops Joaquín Martínez and Learn together. You finally managed to make Tom snap after weeks of endless sysop power abuse and refusal to discuss editorial direction - with predictable results. Update: Aziraphale gets gunned down for not cheering on the sysops. Uh, okay: Henry engages in damage control and reasons that if people can't complain, they can't be banned for complaining. Update: In the meantime, JM pretends that nothing ever happened.
- Fearless sysop Bohdan asks under fire editor TomMoore to do his dirty work for him. Tom may be brave but he's not stupid. Bohdan is, however, happy to sign the Moreclopedic Pleez Petition, and even suggested Tom pester CPAdmin1 to get their signature.
- Further evidence that the Assfly is a mega-self-contradictory goon.
- PJR, as he is wont to do, says the right thing.
- Ed Poor shows us his level of maturity
- Schlafly shows us the meaning of the word diligence. "I skimmed the paper, and the learned nothing from the pretty pictures. Therefore, clearly I need to skim more data." Also I don't need no biology, bitch. I'm an ENGINEER! Update Andy cops some straight talking from PJR. Update the third: Quoth Assfly "that's totally and absolutely not my transparently obvious motivation for doing this. And I'll block and revert anyone who says otherwise."
- Deborah shows us an easy way to improve our 90/10 stats. (Image backup, just in case a sysop goes on a deletion spree)
- PJR heroically pre-empts the corruption of innocent minds by filthy articles (Screenshot here, 'cause it'll vanish with time).
- Who would've thought you had to follow Wikipedia's guidelines while on Conservapedia? And why is the sysop who thinks so misapplying it? And what is stopping him from deleting its equivalent? (Old, but related: You also have to obey another Wikipedia guideline that doesn't exist on CP.)
- Can you sense a pattern? Update - or not?
- Andy looks for people to sign his letter to Lenski. Six hours later he has three: Himself, some guy named after a largely defensive weapon of gun whose user page is still a redlink, and TomMoore, a known pain in the ass. Update: Up to 20; down to 6
- Ymmotrojam isn't too happy with the "the truth shall set you free" quote because it equates Andy's views with Jesus. How long until he realizes that that's most likely exactly what Andy wanted to say?
- There no need to fear! Signed, the Trusworthy Encyclopedia.
- Conservapedia user Jack Smith dares to suggest that the burden of proof is on the Creationist. Circular reasoning soon follows. UPDATE: And the battle continues! Jack smith, shackled by the bonds of logic and the steel ball of sanity, continues to struggle to survive the onslaught from the divine warriors, defying all known laws of reality with the aid of their god! UPDATE 2: these just might be JackSmith's last words.
- How to edit an article, Joaquín Martínez style: Revert anything that happened since your last edit and continue from there. Rinse, repeat. Oh, and keep ignoring the other editors. Update: A reply! JM claims that Tom didn't "give explanations or wait for a reply"(!!!) More: Learn Together solves the conflict by only allowing JM to edit. Update: Tom is not allowed to ask Andy for input Oh, my: JM and Tom exchange blows... (scroll down to the first horizontal line) once, before JM realizes that he lost and resorts to silly taunts and threats. Full Circle: Tom asks if there are any other objections... and JM replies by silently protecting the article again. Update: Learn Together to the rescue: JM is "a man of the arts" and shouldn't be pestered by lowly editors like you, Tom!
- Sign up now to ensure Andy starts really bothering Prof. Lenski!
- DLerner, is blocked by Karajou for daring to question the quality of Andy's
epistleessay - Finally a bit of balance to Andy's bullshit article about marriage, TomMoore strikes back with Essay:Marry Someone You Love
- Mistake or being a dick? With TerryH, it has become impossible to tell, but either way, one day magically became one month. Update: TerryH confirms that it was dickery: "No accident"
- Wasn't it <sorry> Hitler </sorry> and Stalin who compiled lists of their enemies? Or was it the Mikado "I've got a little list... and you'll surely not be missed ..."?
- No, no, Koward! When he said "Irresponsible liars should not be given admin powers", he didn't mean you, although that's a natural assumptions. Blocking him and Jimmy both for "speaking truth to power" does make the connection pretty good, though.
- The Red Queen's justice: sentence first, then trial!
- So far, the list is surprisingly honest. Update: liberals are infertile sluts.
