Re the recent revert of the new sub-section. Can someone suggest how to better incorporate what is clearly significant factual information: Conservapedia clearly isn't an encyclopaedia. I realize that at at least one secondary source is needed. I had hoped that direct quotes from Conservapedia would be sufficient, and even better than biased sources.

The issue is that the paragraph you added is WP:OR and appears to be leaving encyclopedic territory and entering essay territory. I'm also not sure I'd agree that it can't be called an encyclopedia - I think it is (and appears to be described as such by sources), just a very skewed one. — Czello13:59, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed–perhaps an encyclopaedia that often acts like a blog. I hope that this information, which is very significant to the topic, can be added. Even Conservapedia's article on the Bible lacks substance, despite the obsession with atheism. Rwood128 (talk) 16:47, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Does Conservapedia include anything on a Flat Earth? Yes, I could look myself, but my stomach isn't that strong. Given its basis on a literal interpretation of the Bible, I would think that belief in a Flat Earth might be included. (Samuel Rowbotham cites one hundred "proofs" from the Bible that the Earth is flat; other flat-earthers have cited four hundred.) BMJ-pdx (talk) 15:49, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Donald R. Prothero writes in his book "Reality Check: How Science Deniers Threaten Our Future": One would expect Conservapedia to push the idea that the earth is flat, but apparently those ideas are too retro even for Conservapedia. (Instead, it asserts that the "Flat Earth myth" about the past was cooked up by evolutionists to slander creationists, even though the idea is found in the Bible in many places!)
I know it's counter-programming for Wikipedia's 'liberal' backdrop, but Conservapedia has peddled fluff-pieces by mis-contextualising current affairs and pretending that the articles they promote are helping their own cause. Internet Informant (talk) 17:41, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
