I am an editor and assistant SysOp on Conservapedia. It is my intention to add content, clean-up, organize, and improve existing content, and assist other users of this site with whatever needs my arise. I would like anyone who visits for whatever reason to see a well structured, full wiki of what we believe and why. I would also like to see Conservapedia expand more into non-political and Christian topics, so it may be used for every-day research as well as research on conservative topics.
My free time comes and goes. I may have hours every day to spend here, or no time at all. If I am not active and not responding to posts on my talk page, fell free to e-mail me here: david_b4 [at] archnet.us (just replace the "[at]" with "@").
I am also the owner of a simple wiki bot, which operates on Consevapedia under the name User:DavidB4-bot. If you have any questions, suggestions, or problems, please let me know!

These are pages I am planning to create or significantly expand. This list is primarily for my own reference, but feel free to comment or suggest anything on my talk page.

- Box to the right:
{| align=right border=3 cellspacing=0 style="border-width: 5px; border-color: #c0c0c0; background: #e0e0e0; margin: 2em;"
| style="text-align: center; padding: 10px 40px 10px 40px;" | Stand-out box

__TOC__ creates the Table of Contents box at that point, rather than the automatically selected location
__NOTOC__ specifies that there should be no table of contents on a page

Assistant SysOp
As an "emergency SysOp" on Conservapedia, I will do what I can to help protect CP content and users, and carry out whatever other tasks come my way. If you see a problem you want help with, feel free to message or e-mail me! Some people seem to fear moderators and admins, but please don't (unless you have good reason to)! I am not a generally irascible person, so please don't hesitate to question, undo, or change (with good reason) anything I've done. I make mistakes all the time, and it's not uncommon for them to be more than typos. I sometimes proof-read and fact-check my own articles (again) a few weeks after I make them, but even then I miss things. Please do not hesitate to either directly correct mistakes I make or inform me about them!
Writing aid books
Conservapedia tries to maintain a high quality of writing. If you would like to contribute but feel you do not know enough about writing, you may want to consider getting a book to help you learn. Some helpful books are listed here. That said, I have a variety of such books, which although no newer than five years old, may still be helpful. If such a book would be helpful to you, feel free to contact me. If you are looking to make genuinely beneficial contributions to this site, I will consider getting one of them to you at no cost.
Additionally, if you are a homeschooler who is interested in such a book for educational purposes, let me know! I promise nothing, but I'll consider your request.
