| − | After reflection and prayer, I've decided to come back. Regardless of Conservapedia's significance, regardless of whether we ever catch up to [[Wikipedia|the liberals]] - writing new articles is helpful at least to myself and to whomever we can now refer to them. So, I'm definitely back at least for that.

| − | However, I've still not settled in my mind whether Conservapedia is or will be significant or comprehensive - in other words, an encyclopedia which a lot of people go to and take seriously. If we want this to happen, we've got a lot of work ahead of us. [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Bill_of_attainder&diff=prev&oldid=721644 Wikilinks] and [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Deism&diff=prev&oldid=719641 grammar] are just the beginning; we need a lot of [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Talk:D.C._v._Heller&diff=prev&oldid=721098 serious work on articles]. Conservapedia has such noble goals that I hope it does become significant; I hope you agree. If you do take up this work, either message me on [[User_Talk:EvanW|my talk page]] or show up in [[Special:RecentChanges]], and I'll be right there beside you.

| − | <s>I am going on hiatus for the next couple weeks to pray about several things, including my participation in Conservapedia. It seems to me that this encyclopedia is a very, very long way from being comprehensive; and the small number of non-vandalizing users makes me think that it will not catch up for a long while. In addition, the several recent departures of prominent editors (e.g. [[User:Ksorenson]], [[User:MarkGall]], [[User:PatrickD]]) have caused me to rethink where this project seems to be going. Conservapedia has noble goals, but I am no longer sure that participating in it is the way God wants me to use my time.
