::::: There's not really anything you can do. You will need to write your own article from scratch. You can use the references in the Wikipedia article as sources of information for your own article. I guess that there is one other possibility: If the Wikipedia article was primarily written by one person, you could get that person's permission to copy ''his contributions only'' to Conservapedia. And if you do that, it's probably best that that author put a note on his user page on Wikipedia that he has given that permission. 17:28, 20 March 2008 (EDT)

::::::Something else to consider, is that this encyclopedia prefers ''concise'' articles, so perhaps paraphrasing the Wikipedia entry would be a better match for this encyclopedia anyway. -[[User:DrSandstone|DrSandstone]] 18:01, 20 March 2008 (EDT)
