| | + | #Noncontroversial edits are ''usually'' ok |
| | + | #I will always follow the [[Conservapedia:Guidelines|Guidelines]] and [[Conservapedia:Commandments|Commandments]] (G&C) |
| | + | #I will attempt to make all articles follow the G&C, and encourage other editors to do likewise |
| | + | #Essay pages are opinion |
| | + | #Mainspace pages are fact |
| | + | #''No [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=User:Aziraphale/Tilting_at_Windmills&oldid=296120 tilting at windmills]! |
| | + | #I will not treat someone's work differently because of their "status"; this is a community project |
| | + | #I will not revert anything added to a talk page, unless a user swears or edits another user's words |
| | + | #The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a new result |
| | + | |
| | + | <big>'''Pet Peeves'''</big> |
| | + | (In no particular order) |
| | + | #Plagiarism is the use of another's words as one's own without giving proper credit. This is true even if you "paid for it" and have permission to use it |
| | + | #Selected examples do ''not'' prove a trend. If you want to show that "most people do X" by example, you can never prove your point with examples |
| | + | #Don't use "literally" if you mean "figuratively". Don't use "literally" if there's no figurative way to take what you say. |
| | + | #Improper use of political lables. "Conservative" may, in most cases, be the opposite of "liberal", but there are numerous other ideologies which don't line up on a 1-dimentional scale! |
| | + | #Improper use of numbers! (P(BC|Ab)>P(BC|P) does not imply that P(BC|Ab)>P(BC)!!) |
| | + | #"Ironic" means that something happened opposite to what you expect to happen. A woman getting hit and killed by a sugar truck is sad. A diabetic woman getting hit and killed by a sugar truck is coincidence. A diabetic woman getting hit and killed by an ''insulin'' truck is ironic. |
| | + | #Finding "please add more" on a wiki page. For one, lists rarely make a good article (and often contribute to pet peeve #2); additionally, all wikis are works in progress, so there's always an implied assumption to add more to an article. |
| | + | #More to come <!-- now *that* is ironic humor --> |
