For those who think Wiki is a bastion of liberal, sandal wearing treehuggers:

http://www.conservapedia.com/

Including:
"The Commandments
1. Everything you post must be true and verifiable.
2. Always cite and give credit to your sources, even if in the public domain.
3. Edits/new pages must be family-friendly, clean, concise, and without gossip or foul language.
4. When referencing dates based on the approximate birth of Jesus, give appropriate credit for the basis of the date (B.C. or A.D.). "BCE" and "CE" are unacceptable substitutes because they deny the historical basis. See CE.
5. As much as is possible, American spelling of words must be used.[1]
6. Do not post personal opinion on an encyclopedia entry. Opinions can be posted on Talk:pages or on debate or discussion pages.
Edits which violate these rules will be deleted. Users who violate the rules repeatedly will be blocked. A blatantly inappropriate entry, such as vandalism or obscenity, can result in immediate blocking without warning."

Please tell me this is a spoof and I'm missing the point. I can't sign in as my e-mail is not US based. They would only throw me out anyway for not using "American" spellings.

Personally, I think #4 and #6 are in conflict (well, #1 and #4 as well).

However, I didn't think of Wikipedia as a bastion of liberal, sandal wearing treehuggers:

I completely agree with Brazil though.

In case someone edits it:

Brazil: A lie propagated by godless hedonistic liberals.

Interesting view of socialism.
