CreationWiki is a MediaWiki based wiki devoted to collecting the current body of knowledge relevant to creationism, particularly Young Earth Creationism[1], and presenting the said positions is a favorable light. It attempts to maintain the integrity of the content within these goals by preventing individuals who do not identify as creationists from making non-minor changes[2]. It also attempts to prevent individuals whose pre-existing biases might interfere with presenting certain aspects of creationism in a good light from editing, i.e., Old Earth Creationists are not allowed to significantly edit articles about Young Earth Creationism, and vice versa. Automatic registration is also disabled, one must register through an editor in order to be able to edit. CreationWiki has spawned a response, EvoWiki, the goals of which are to collect the current body of information relevant to evolution.
