description Conservapedia Overview
Conservapedia is an English-language, wiki-based online encyclopedia founded in 2006 by American lawyer and Christian conservative activist Andrew Schlafly. The project presents itself as a conservative and Christian alternative to Wikipedia and says it was created to address what its founders view as liberal or anti-Christian bias in mainstream reference works. Articles are written and edited by contributors within that framework, so the site is intended for readers seeking a specifically conservative religious perspective rather than a politically neutral reference work.
