<p>Matt Hew: Added userboxes</p> <hr /> <div>Hello! I've been reading Conservapedia's articles for a while now, and I finally decided that I wanted to contribute to the site. I'm rather new to wiki editing, but I hope to learn more about it after some time editing here. I look forward to working with you all in the future.<br /> {{userboxtop|Some facts about me}}<br /> {{User Christian}} <br /> {{User coder}} <br /> {{User KnowsNoEvo}} <br /> {{User American}} <br /> {{User Baptist}} <br /> {{User homeandpubschool}} <br /> {{userboxbottom}}</div>

<p>Matt Hew: </p> <hr /> <div>== A couple of suggestions ==<br /> <br /> Good start! However, these are some changes I'd make to improve the article: <br /> <br /> 1. Point one and seven are redundant; I'd remove point 1 completely, and make point 7 the new point n.1. In addition, point 7 should be rephrased in my opinion, to avoid repetitions.<br /> <br /> 2. In point two, a sentence could be added stating how the encouragement of personal enterprise and ingenuity normally leads to more advanced scientific progress. If you expand on it, it could be made a separate point altogether.<br /> <br /> I didn't make the changes myself as I am not the original author of this article and I wanted to have some feedback first :) --[[User:MarcoT|MarcoT]] 16:19, 1 June 2010 (EDT)<br /> <br /> ==Need to cite sources==<br /> This article does not cite any sources.

More detailed explanations would really help out some of these points. Also, some sources would be greatly appreciated. If there's any way I can help, let me know.
