== Conservapedia and Search Engines ==
Hello! I just left a message on the Supreme Court course enrollment page, and had an off-topic question. As I mentioned there, I just discovered Conservapedia during a web search. I have been online for years and have never seen Conservapedia anywhere. What is being done to get Conservapedia "out there" on the web and especially in search engines? Thanks! <font color="#0000ff">ecfmusic</font>
: Welcome. We are highly ranked in search engines for many key terms, but more efforts in editing, teaching, learning and publicizing are welcome! Godspeed.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 11:37, 16 May 2008 (EDT)
Thank you. How does one contribute to these "efforts" as an individual? I confess my lack of specific knowledge on how this is done, although I am aware that "sponsored" links can be bought. When I have probably seen tens of thousands of links on various search engines, but just one connecting to Conservapedia, it is obvious that a very low overall percentage of search links to the site exist at this point. Responses from anyone reading this post are welcome. <font color="#0000ff"><font color="#0000ff">ecfmusic</font> 13:18, 16 May 2008 (EDT)</font>
Navigation templates should definetly increase rankings of articles, also linking words that should be but aren't, making a blog about conservapedia, making a specific article part of your signature for a forum, discussing conservapedia in forums and chatrooms --13:21, 16 May 2008 (EDT)
== The Christian blog contest ==
Andy, I do think we might be able to get thousands and thousands of people knowing about Conservapedia though [[CP:Theism and Anti-atheism Blog Contest|our contest]]. All we have to do is periodically say in the breaking news section the following: "Have a Christian blog and want more people to know about it? Please go [[CP:Theism and Anti-atheism Blog Contest|Here]]." And of course, Conservapedians telling others about the contest would be helpful too.

Thanks for your response to my post under the thread above, which I retitled "Conservapedia and Search Engines." While word of mouth has historically one of the most effective ways to market a product or service, I am concerned that the millions of people who use search engines daily are being missed in the process. I do not propose buying "sponsored links," as I suspect that the money is not available for such a campaign; I rather wonder if other avenues, such as search tags or widgets could be used in a coordinated effort to get the word out. It might also to be good to add this topic to the "Help" menu and/or to the "Useful Links." Suggestions? <font color="#0000ff"><font color="#0000ff">ecfmusic</font> 13:43, 16 May 2008 (EDT)</font>
==Regarding removal of my articles here==
I have been told that you are the person to which I should contact regarding removal of my articles. I have expressed that I no longer want to be involved in this project, and have also expressed that I want my articles here removed - as I do not want my name attached to them here.

Perhaps, Andy could rename your account, all edits made by this account would say the name of the new user account --<span style="margin-top: -3px;"> [[Image:50 star flag.png|12px]]</span><span style="position:relative; overflow:hidden; width:88px; height:15px; z-index:2;"> [[User:Deborah|Deborah]] [[Special:Contributions/Deborah|<font color="gray">(contributions)</font>]] [[User_talk:Deborah|<font color="darkslategray">(talk)</font>]]</span> 14:21, 16 May 2008 (EDT)
: Thanks, Deborah, I've responded on the talk for the Main Page.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 19:03, 16 May 2008 (EDT)
::Er, wasn't this just a hoax by someone posting copies of 19th century writings or earlier? (Just trying to see if we were trusting enough to be taken in (see [[assume good faith]]) or too ignorant to do a Bartleby search.
::I'm getting a little tired of people coming here just to subvert the project. Of course, the constant subversion just proves that liberals will stoop at nothing to destroy those who disagree with them. I guess their ideology is too shallow and fragile to survive in the [[marketplace of ideas]]. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 21:15, 18 May 2008 (EDT)
==why dont you==
Why dont you discuss your reverts aschlafly? At the moment the article constitutes placement bias
[[User:AdenJ|AdenJ]] 18:49, 16 May 2008 (EDT)
: No, your edit was obvious [[placement bias]]. We put the important stuff up at the top here. Also, don't comment here, comment on the talk page for the entry.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 18:50, 16 May 2008 (EDT)--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 18:50, 16 May 2008 (EDT)
== Thanks ==
Thanks for unblocking me, I'll be slower in the categories now. --[[User:Panda95|Panda95]] 14:35, 17 May 2008 (EDT)
== I apologize ==
I am sorry for creating such a politically charged entry, I see how it could be hard to tell the difference between parody and the real thing in that case. I will refrain from injecting such extreme bias into articles. Thank you for only blocking me two hours.

== Physics ==
Why did you revert my edit on Physics? It was correctly sourced. --[[User:CassieLott|CassieLott]] 21:46, 17 May 2008 (EDT)
: It was completely inappropriate for where you placed it. Not every "correctly sourced" quote belongs at the beginning of an entry.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 21:48, 17 May 2008 (EDT)
== CE and ISO 8601==
Hello Mr. Schlafly,
I have a concern with the [[CE]] article. It mentions that BCE and CE are not recognized as part of [[ISO 8601]], but ISO 8601 does not deal with the representations of eras, only dating formats. As such, ISO 8601 does not recognize BC and AD either (I have linked to the ISO 8601 at [[Talk:CE#ISO_8601]]). There is no ISO document regarding how eras should be referenced and represented. I think it would be more appropriate to research what MLA or APA standards are, but I don't have either of those manuals. As it stands, I think the article gives the misrepresentation that ISO covers something it does not.
Thank you,
--[[User:Countryforchrist|Countryforchrist]] 10:28, 19 May 2008 (EDT)
: Good point, as far as I can tell. It was not my edit. I've removed the ISO 8601 reference per your suggestion.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 13:18, 19 May 2008 (EDT)
