::: Even then, its the issue of a wiki is not a primary source.  Should references be restricted to primary sources?  Should secondary sources be allowed?  Or tertiary sources?  If it turns out that Conservapedia uses tertiary sources, then it becomes a quaternary source which is rarely acceptable for any citations being so far removed from the original material.  --[[User:Mtur|Mtur]] 15:19, 29 March 2007 (EDT)
