::Are you suggesting that the Wikipedia article is effectively useless?  I think there's every reason to use wikis, so long as the articles are well referenced, as that one is.  This article is hardly core values Conservapedia material, hence why publish a weaker article?  [[User:BenHur|BenHur]] 19:57, 22 October 2008 (EDT)

:::BHarlan - your most recent edit comment suggested that "Wikipedia is useful only as a citation for things that are liberal".  But this article isn't about liberal or conservative ''anything'', is it?  A guy was assaulted in a pretty hideous way, the bad guy went to jail, and an award was made to the unfortunate victim.  I can't see the harm in simply saying "there's a better article elsewhere, go read it"?  Especially for an article so way out of left field for Conservapedia?  I'm sorry if I'm wrong, but I can't see the logic?  It's not even really a 'child-friendly' story?  [[User:BenHur|BenHur]] 20:06, 22 October 2008 (EDT)

:::Well, isn't that a conversation we should be having then?  What ''is'' the point of this wiki?  To rewrite every story in the Universe, finding a Conservative perspective on all truths?    That seems kind of ridiculous.  And BHarlan - your most recent edit comment suggested that "Wikipedia is useful only as a citation for things that are liberal".  But this article isn't about liberal or conservative ''anything'', is it?  A guy was assaulted in a pretty hideous way, the bad guy went to jail, and an award was made to the unfortunate victim.  I can't see the harm in simply saying "there's a better article elsewhere, go read it"?  Especially for an article so way out of left field for Conservapedia?  I'm sorry if I'm wrong, but I can't see the logic?  It's not even really a 'child-friendly' story?  [[User:BenHur|BenHur]] 20:06, 22 October 2008 (EDT)
