==Strong Advocate of Conservapedia over Wikipedia==
Ralwes is a staunch advocate of [[Conservapedia]] and links to it where possible using his [[The Survival Blog]], doing his best to avoid what frequently calls the "[[Wikipedia|LiberalPropagandaPedia]]."
To quote him, "As I’ve mentioned before, Wikipedia’s editors have strong [[leftist]] and [[statist]] [[liberal bias|biases]]. This is evidenced by the way that they selectively delete content and gradually push the Point of View (POV) of articles to match their world views. According a SurvivalBlog reader in [[Switzerland]], the following section was deleted from Wikipedia by members of an [[gun control|anti-gun]] Wikipedia [[cabal]] on August 14, 2013. (It had been part of the [[Mayors Against Illegal Guns]] article). Never mentioned in the Wikipedia article was the fact that there are charges pending against at least seven other members of their “crime fighting” organization: Marcus Hook Mayor [[James Schiliro|James ‘Jay’ Schiliro]] - the “furnishing [[alcohol]] to a minor” charge was just dropped on a technicality, but he still faces [[misdemeanor]] charges of official oppression, recklessly endangering another person, unlawful restraint and false imprisonment, in a bizarre incident where he tried to force a young man to have [[homosexual]] relations, at gunpoint.)"<ref>156 {{Template:James Wesley Rawles authorized quotation}} January 5, 2015 ''Embarrassing Truths: An Example of Why You Shouldn’t Trust Wikipedia'' http://survivalblog.com/embarrassing_truths_an_example_of_why_you_shouldnt_trust_wikipedia</ref>, <ref name=schiliroscandal>{{cite web|last=Bender|first=William|title=Marcus Hook Mayor arrested, seeking re-election|url=http://articles.philly.com/2013-03-22/news/37940199_1_schiliro-whelan-report-states|publisher=Philly.com}}</ref>
=== 2400 Words Quotes Authorized from SurvivalBlog.com Works===
In general (for non-Conservapedia editors), Rawles, founder/owner of [[The Survival Blog]], has suggested 800 words seems to be a reasonable and commonplace [[Talk:Fair_use#Authorization_by_NYT_Best-Selling_Conservative_Christian_Preparedness_Author_James_Wesley_Rawles_to_use_.22up_to_3_Quotes_of_800_Words_Each.22_of_his_Writings_per_CP_Article|Fair Use]] except/[[Conservapedia:Guidelines#Attribution|quoting]] amount for [[Fair Use]] (See [http://www.survivalblog.com/provisos.html Important Fair Use Provisos]). However, for editors of Conservapedia, on December 30, 2014, he made a special authorization of 3 times that quantity saying "You are certainly welcome to use up to three quotes of 800 words each, in any of your wiki articles."
