Sad indeed. I am not entirely convinced Conservapedia is even maintained
by conservatives. Most of the stuff I've seen on there looks as though
it was designed to poke fun at conservatives, rather than to represent
us accurately.
I've not heard of Liberapedia; I might check it out in a bit to see how
awful it is.

404 or 403? Conservapedia user TK (TK-CP on Wikipedia) had a programme
of doing huge rangeblocks on entire countries, keeping them from even
*viewing* the site. He passed away in December and since then it's
been unlocked slightly, but I believe most or all of the UK is still
under a rangeblock ...
(Wiki failure mode: being so paranoid you block perceived enemies from
*looking* at your site.)
