:::I'll make this easy on you, Aschlafly.  If America is twice as conservative as it is liberal, then 33.3333333% are liberal and 66.666666% are conservative.  That makes it 33.3333% or one third liberal, right? If three times as many people on wikipedia are liberal, then wikipedia is 75% liberal and 25% conservative. That makes it 75% liberal.  75% divided by 33.333% equals approximately 2.27, thus making wikipedia's population  2.27 times as liberal than the general public.  However, that is unrelated to bias.  You can be a liberal and write an unbiased article, just as you can be a conservative and do the same.--[[User:Mechrobioticon|Mechrobioticon]] 00:06, 30 April 2007 (EDT)

:::You can think about it this way.  If your data is correct, then if you were to walk down the street and grab 6 people, statistically you should get 2 liberals and 4 conservatives.  At wikipedia, you should get 1.5 conservatives (statistically speaking) and 4.5 liberals.  1.5 times 3 equals 4.5, and 1.5 plus 4.5 equals 6.  Divide 4.5 by 2, and you get 2.25.--[[User:Mechrobioticon|Mechrobioticon]] 00:06, 30 April 2007 (EDT)
