From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Here at Wikipedia we strive to achieve a neutral point of view by presenting disputes as they are and the evidence as it is. As such, the creation of an article which inherently adheres to one point of view in such an argument, such as your recent submission "Evidence for creation", cannot be accepted into Wikipedia. However, in the future after reading some of the guidelines that we have about Neutral point of view, we certainly welcome your submissions and encourage you to keep on editing and contributing. Thanks again, and happy editing, --Kuzaar-T-C- 13:16, 16 June 2006 (UTC) Also, here's the old template message for creationist POV editors:

[edit] Evolution

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contribution. We realise that evolution is a controversial topic in the United States and in some other places in the world.

Many of the arguments presented by proponents of creationism or intelligent design have been presented to this page repeatedly. Generally, these arguments are based on a misunderstanding of evolution and/or lack any supporting sources. For that reason, please consider the following:

  • Evolution is not a random process. Mutations are random, natural selection is not.
  • A supposed 'gap' in the evolution theory is not equivalent to rebuttal of the theory and evolutionary theory does not predict the existence of intermediate forms between all forms of life (cat-dog/bird-fish etc.)
  • The word theory in science indicates a well studied and supported explanation for a given set of usually undisputed observations.
    • Consider that any scientist capable of disproving evolution would be assured of fame and fortune.
  • We are still looking for the many scientists that supposedly support creationism or intelligent design.
  • In general, back up claims that substantially change the content of the article with reliable and verifiable sources.

For common responses to creationist arguments please see TalkOrigins. Feel free to start a discussion on something that is supported by verifiable and reliable sources, but if you wish to discuss or debate the general validity of evolution please do so at Talk.Origins, because Wikipedia is not a discussion board. Thank you. --Kuzaar-T-C- 13:20, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
