This general disclaimer is largely plagiarized from Wikipedia's general disclaimer. That's not a good example to set; in college you get expelled for plagiarism. Luckily, solving the problem is as easy as crediting Wikipedia. Then all will be dandy. [[User:GOPfan77|GOPfan77]] 22:16, 8 September 2007 (EDT)

No Disclaimer?

I don't get it. If this site is, and I quote, "one of the largest and most reliable online educational resources of its kind", why does it have that "not-complete" feel to it. I thought it was just the articles at first... but this is a project page for heaven's sake!

At the bottom of each page there is a link to Disclaimers. It links here to an empty page.
At Conservapedia:Disclaimer one can find a discalimer. It includes the sentence:
Nothing here has necessarily been reviewed or checked by anyone with expertise to ensure that it is accurate or reliable.
I suggest that be inserted on this page. It could even be added to the bottom of every page.

Plagiarism

This general disclaimer is largely plagiarized from Wikipedia's general disclaimer. That's not a good example to set; in college you get expelled for plagiarism. Luckily, solving the problem is as easy as crediting Wikipedia. Then all will be dandy. GOPfan77 22:16, 8 September 2007 (EDT)
