-For a couple days, I listed here "Articles I've Significantly Edited" and "Articles I've Created or Expanded from Stubs".  But, those lists quickly got out-of-date.  So, I'm just listing some of my areas of interest:
-* Science.  Examples:  [[Precession of the equinoxes]]; [[Kirchoff's current law]]; [[Pioneer anomaly]]
-* Math.  Examples:  [[Derivative]]; [[Change of variables]]
-* Law.  Examples:  [[Missouri v. Jenkins]]; [[United States v. Bailey]]
-* History, especially American history.  Examples:  [[Simon bar-Kokhba]]; [[Crittenden Compromise]]; [[Treaty of Westphalia]]
-* Adding helpful redirects and fixing poorly-organized articles
-==Returned from Hiatus==
-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.
-By the way - Welcome back, [[User:MarkGall]]; and thanks, [[User:JacobB]], for replying to my last message.

-<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.
-I hope to reach a decision before Christmas, and I will (if possible) be back at least to explain it.
