:: Oh no! Nobody thanks you. Is that why you started Conservapedia nobody thanked you for your help at Wikipedia?
:: All open source projects are like this lots of people do lots of work and nobody gets any recongition unless you creak open the code and have a look (LaTeX style files usually have the authors name commented out somewhere at the top of the source code). People have reasons other than recongnition when they participate in open source projects. LaTeX for example, you wanted to do something, you couldn't find a style file to do so you write one yourself and then upload it to the CTRN website so other people arn't met with the same problem. Nobody gets recognised but everyone gets something out of it. [[User:DanielB|DanielB]] 01:15, 13 May 2008 (EDT)

: He invented the first wiki, not the software that powers Conservapedia. The software that powers Conservapedia is the same as the one that powers Wikipedia, which is the one that produced by people who submit program code to MediaWiki project in order to create Wikipedia.
