Thanks for the additions to the red wave article

Thank you for the additions to the red wave article. It was a very stubby article before. Conservative (talk) 15:57, July 15, 2021 (EDT)

Thx for Helping

I've seen the work you've done for the KC Chiefs page, anything that you write helps. Thank you ! (P.S. I recommend filling out your user page, helps.)

A Matter of Basic Principles (book)

Thanks for writing about A Matter of Basic Principles (book).

A housemate and fellow parishioner of the church I became a Christian in was really into Bill Gothard. He later got divorced and now he doesn't believe in Hell.

I just found about the problems of Gothard's teachings and his personal problems. Conservative (talk) 13:48, April 5, 2024 (EDT)

Great to see you again

Wonderful seeing you again!--Andy Schlafly (talk) 19:28, May 9, 2024 (EDT)

Conservapedia's timeouts and slowness problems

re: Conservapedia's timeout and slowness problems

I saw your main page talk post.

Conservapedia uses old versions of MediaWiki, PHP and MySQL (See: Conservapedia's software stack). As a result, it is like a wiki that didn't eat its Wheaties (The cereal that is the breakfast of champions). It is slow and under traffic loads associated with bot or traffic spikes, it buckles and/or hiccups. And bot traffic is increasing due to AI and probably other factors. Andy could fix this problem if Conservapedia updated its versions involving this software cluster and also used Cloudflare (It would help if Conservapedia used Cloudflare as far as DDOS mitigation). I haven't had much luck getting Andy to do the software updates and he has chosen not to use Cloudflare too. But I found workarounds to get access to my site articles by making backups to my articles at the Internet Archive website and via archive.ph

Feel free to contact Andy and suggest updating the website's software. Conservative (talk) 21:32, March 13, 2026 (EDT)

Thanks for the correction!

Thanks for your correction to Bethesda!--Andy Schlafly (talk) 20:08, April 19, 2026 (EDT)

+== Thanks for the additions to the red wave article ==
-When you see an article with a bad title, creating a new page and making the old page a redirect is '''not''' how you should do it. If you do that, you essentially wipe out the old page's history, which is important, and you probably hurt the page's location on search engines since the new page starts at zero views again while the old page (which would now be a redirect that nobody visits) has several thousand.

-There is a tool that only certain editors have that allows one to change an article's title without having to create a new article and thus mess up the page history. When you see a page with a bad title, please ask one of those editors. I recommend [[User:DavidB4]] or [[User:Aschlafly]].

-May I ask why you are changing articles into redirects without preserving the content on those pages? (i.e. [[Bankruptcy petition]], [[Bankruptcy law‎]], [[Bankruptcy trustee‎]], [[Bankruptcy judge‎]], [[Bankruptcy estate‎]], etc.)  Redirects might be suitable, but shouldn't the page content be saved, perhaps on the page you are redirecting to? Thanks! --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</sup> 18:21, 2 March 2018 (EST)
-:Next time, please first post on the talk pages of various articles proposing actions like this, or at least let other editors know that you will do it. Turning multiple 11-year-old pages into redirects is a big deal, and doing it unilaterally is not constructive. I don't see anything wrong with your edits (though I've seen that you didn't save everything from the old pages), but you really should go to the talk page first for this. Thanks. --[[User:1990&#39;sguy|1990&#39;sguy]] ([[User talk:1990&#39;sguy|talk]]) 22:54, 3 March 2018 (EST)
