What is your opinion of Rational wiki
[font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','Infindel B',fantasy;" size=4 color=teal]Was having an offsite discussion about this site and I was wondering what all the skeptics of DU think of Rationalwiki.[/font]
http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/RationalWiki:History [font style="font-family:papyrus,'Brush Script MT','Infindel B',fantasy;" size=4 color=teal]It has some rather dubious history and connections to Conservapedia, but it seems that the two site have nothing but an undying hatred of each other now. In their new incarnation they have even removed all editors that ever contributed to conservapeon. Further, I have never seen any articles there that seem to have an right wing libertarian or conservative bent to them...or if they do it is a bias that is parallel to our own as liberal skeptics. In fact, I would say the only bias there is a pro-science and pro-skeptic one. What do all of you think? Is this a RW Libertarian site that we as liberals should avoid linking to on DU? Or is it simply pro-skeptic and a good place to use as a source as we combat the forces of Woo here on DU?[/font]

1. I've never seen anything from RationalWiki that seemed right-wing
Until today, I'd never even heard how RW got its start. But in general, it's been a pretty good source.
