Conservapedia isn't even a reliable guide to what most U.S. conservatives think of Wikipedia; despite the broad name, the site is actually run by Young Earth creationists <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Earth_creationism>, which is why it's so outlandish.
So, put me down for bull. Pardon the apparent self-promotion, but I wrote about this last year<http://thewikipedian.net/2009/11/14/examples-of-bias-in-conservapedias-examples-of-bias-in-wikipedia/#comments>on my blog (David commented, so that makes it better, maybe) and my chief takeaway was that some complaints were in fact answered over time, although one imagines not due to their influence, as no one there ever bothered to take credit for the changes. What I'd set out to do in the first place was catalogue their complaints, but it was all too much. If they were at all serious, they'd write something more concise. It's just a list of gripes, and not so much with Wikipedia, but with modernity.
