Mutual Citation League
Panda's Thumb is often used as a "reliable source" at Wikipedia® for articles related to intelligent design, creation science, and evolution[1][2] despite not meeting Wikipedia's official, binding policy on verifiability regarding blogs.[3]
The NCSE also cites the Panda's Thumb as though it were an unaffiliated reliable source.[4]
Panda's Thumb is owned by the same group that owns TalkOrigins.[5] TalkOrigins is another self-published website frequently used as a so-called reliable source on Wikipedia for articles related to evolution, or the creation-evolution controversy.
