::It has to do with the copyright policies on Wikipedia ''and'' Conservapedia. I don't understand the legalese, but they are incompatible. Regardless, Jpatt is right; it is policy that we right our own articles. (Otherwise we would just copy/paste all of Wikipedia, remove the bias and be done with it). You can use Wikipedia entries ''only'' if you were the only author and no other authors made changes to it. [[User:HelpJazz|Help]][[User talk:HelpJazz|Jazz]] 21:03, 8 October 2008 (EDT)

==Wrong article==
This one is supposed to be about seeds from a tree; try [[Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN)]] and fill it in. [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 21:56, 8 October 2008 (EDT)
