::First of all, the proposed commandment would not prevent any contributor from making edits to Conservapedia. The best of the public would still be able to add their own insights to any of our articles, debates, or essays. My proposed commandment is simply a natural extension of our commandments requiring content to be "true and verifiable" and barring gossip (commandments which are very difficult to follow when adding content about non-public figures), as well as our privacy policy. Legally, it's probably also a good idea to prevent content from being added about non-public figures, as we have better protection against defamation claims from public figures. | ::First of all, the proposed commandment would not prevent any contributor from making edits to Conservapedia.
