Line 86: − − ==Popular articles at Conservapedia== − The current view count is led by: − {| − !Article!!Page views − |- − |Homosexual Agenda||6,700,715 − |- − |Atheism||5,582,034 − |- − |Barack Hussein Obama||2,734,448 − |- − |Adolf Hitler||2,255,249 − |- − |Wikipedia||2,150,728 − |- − |Muslim agenda of the Obama administration||2,054,564 − |- − |Counterexamples to Relativity||1,998,699 − |- − |Examples of Bias in Wikipedia||1,550,956 − |- − |Conservative Bible Project||1,524,396 − |} − I suggest that we pare back the list on the left column to just these or at most to the top 25 articles. A present the list seems to be the favorite articles of a few administrators rather than a list representing the page views of our readers. This creates a mis-impression of our reader's interests. Thanks, [[User:Wschact|Wschact]] 12:37, 27 November 2014 (EST) − − Rounding out the top 25 would be: − {| − !Article!!Page views − |- − |Sarah Palin||1,078,400 − |- − |Liberal||1,078,002 − |- − |Homosexuality and Anal Cancer||781,045 − |- − |Homosexuality and Parasites||780,921 − |- − |Atheism and obesity||779,023 − |- − |Homosexuality||658,817 − |- − |Evolution||656,228 − |- − |ObamaCare||610,019 − |- − |United States Presidential Election, 2008||579,521 − |- − |Joseph Biden||575,876 − |- − |World famous paintings||509,483 − |- − |George W. Bush||471,628 − |- − |List of dictators||442,356 − |- − |Abortion||426,857 − |- − |Global warming||426,511 − |- − |Democratic Party||420,749 − |} − It is very strange that some of our top 25 articles are missing from the list, and there are a number of articles on the list that are not in our top 25. Could someone with editing rights on main page left please fix this? Thanks, [[User:Wschact|Wschact]] 12:49, 27 November 2014 (EST) − − :Interesting suggestion, but insight is obviously not a popularity contest. The list of most-visited pages is already automatically compiled and readily available. The most noteworthy popular pages should be a different list.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 13:58, 27 November 2014 (EST) − ::Some of the articles view counts such as [[Homosexuality and Parasites]] are the result of clickbots. There are no good reasons to have the enemies of Conservapedia dictate which articles are featured on the main page due to their view counts listed at the bottom of their pages. Furthermore, some of the articles have underestimates of their view counts due to the articles being temporarily deleted. For example, the [[evolution]] and [[Richard Dawkins]] articles are underestimated by about 500,000 page views if memory serves. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 15:59, 28 November 2014 (EST) − − You're right. Insight is not a popularity contest. But the header above the list says "Popular articles at Conservapedia". So that title succumbs to the "popularity contest" mentality. I would suggest that the title be changed to something like "Our Most Insightful Articles", or "Conservapedia's Best Articles" or "Flagship Articles" or something like that. There also ought to be a way for people to see, for better or worse, which articles are popular in terms of page views. As Andy says above, this is accessible under [[Special:PopularPages]]. Perhaps there ought to be a note telling people where to find it. Perhaps, after the "Most Insightful Articles" list, there should be a note along the lines of "You can see our most popular articles [[Special:PopularPages|here]]. Then we can get the best of both worlds. − − I would also suggest that any listing of our "most insightful articles" be pruned more carefully than the present list. One interloper that comes to mind is the [[Essay:Comedy_and_satires_concerning_atheism_and_evolution|Humor about atheism and evolution]] page. It is absurd, and gives all of us a bad name. It has pictures of a pony, a bear, and a "flying kitty". That may have been funny once, but it has long outlived its humor value. Furthermore, '''it is locked'''. A page that is locked '''can't possibly be considered "the best of the public"!''' Now some pages are admittedly vandalism magnets, but I think people are overreacting. [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] 23:45, 28 November 2014 (EST) − :SamHB, what are your thoughts related to the social science data contained in this article: [[Liberal Christianity and marital infidelity]]. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 01:05, 29 November 2014 (EST) − − Thank you for your thoughtful responses. In order for the list to be effective, two changes should be made: 1) the list should be shortened to 10 or at most 25 items. 2) There should be an objective criteria for inclusion on the list. It should not be up to one or two people to curate the list based on which articles they find most interesting or which they have written.
