No RW atheist has ever found a factual error in Conservapedia's atheism article so of course RW doesn't have a rule about this matter.

"...There has been very little input by other members of the RW community. It's a pretty large wholesale change on suggestion here but it is the same voices. So I feel uncomfortable with it as it stands because of this. Does anyone else feel the same way or is it just me with this #### clanging around in my head?" - AceModerator 10:09, 13 May 2020 (UTC)]]
