:Yes, I think that would be a good idea. [[User:Richardm|Richardm]] ([[User talk:Richardm|talk]]) 05:09, 23 September 2016 (EDT)
I like what you are doing. But here are a couple of suggestions. Keep rebuttal stuff impersonal. "It is baffling that ...." is better than "I don't understand how you can say ....". Also, don't bother engaging people on talk pages (or their personal talk pages). It accomplishes nothing. Though, if someone engages you, by all means feel free to reply. In fact, I'm tempted to add to BSF a section "Communicating with Conservapedia admins on talk pages", citing Matthew 7:6 "neither cast ye your pearls before swine". Just kidding.
As for editing actual article pages, I think you know how, but, to reiterate, do not change anything above the table of contents. Do not delete anything below the table of contents. But you can move stuff around, and put in true statements, and put false statements into context. If there is something in the article that you absolutely can't stand, that's what rebuttal pages are for.
Keep up the good work. [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] ([[User talk:SamHB|talk]]) 12:58, 23 September 2016 (EDT)

==Disturbed writing==
I see that your peregrinations through Conservapedia have taken you into some incredibly confused wilderness; it was bound to happen sooner or later. I had a serious run-in with this person over the [[Disturbed character]] page--see the talk and history. I finally gave up; his writing is, well, disturbed. Some of his other articles are [[Fog displacement]] and [[Logic of possibility]]. I'm planning to put "delete" notices on them. Other articles are [[ABC Theory of Emotion]] and [[Gedankenexperiment]]. It's really too bad that an interesting scientific concept is so messed up.
I can kind of understand Cons ([[User:Conservative]]), and even communicate with him (excuse me, with all the many people in the "collective" that he wants us to believe he fantasizes about), but I simply have no idea how to deal with this person.

I've been around Andy's thermodynamics stuff for quite a while. All his pet ideas are concentrated in that one small section. Including "intelligent intervention", "intrinsic uncertainty in nature, manifest in quantum mechanics", "inevitably derails the system", and "disproves the atheistic Theory of Evolution and Theory of Relativity". It's really a nice compact section. We should leave it that way, and give a correct exposition below the TOC. I removed the word "derail" once, and Andy put it back in.
To see another example, look at "Simply put, E=mc² is liberal claptrap", in the [[E%3Dmc²]] article. You can't take that out. That article isn't nearly as neat as the 2nd law article, by the way. [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] ([[User talk:SamHB|talk]]) 20:36, 25 September 2016 (EDT)
:Were you involved in the decision to change angular momentum to the law of conservation of same? I think it's a terrible idea. Before you can present the conservation law, you need an article explaining what it is. But there's so much else that needs attending to -- relativity, thermodynamics, BSF, etc. etc.
:Do not get into fights with admins. Contact me at sam4557@gmail.com for further guidance if you wish. Use a throwaway email address if you wish.
:I've changed my mind about making a "rebuttal" essay to [[Attempts to prove E=mc²]]. On the talk page I said that I didn't think it could be done. I now believe it can. And must.
