Debate:The liberal quotient of Conservapedia; what is it? Does it matter?
I've been wondering what this murky statistic actually is for Conservapedia; firstly, would all contributors give their summation of whether they are liberal or conservative (don't worry, Aschafly specifically said that you won't be banned because of it; he's fair and balanced, like that), so we can work it out. Should be interesting.
The second point is does it actually matter? If articles are sufficiently sourced, cited, and peer-reviewed, won't Conservapedia be 'right' (excuse the pun) automatically? Remember, the truth is the truth, no matter who says it. If Stalin had discovered gravity, we wouldn't all float up in the air.
Oh, and I would definitely say that I, according to your standards, am a Liberal.
The Tally Liberal = 1 Conservative = 0
(I do have to admit that this is a simplified version - merely a lib:con ratio; still should be interesting to see what people identify themselves as)
Suggesting categories?
To ease the process of analysis, why not create two categories (Liberal Conservapedians, Conservative Conservapedians), so that there might develop at least a basis in self-identification on which to base the LQ (and it's reciprocal, the CQ)? I know this isn't a talk page, but we should sign debate comments, right? Human 17:07, 9 April 2007 (EDT)
