Hi Ed, glad to see you here in the Forums. But also, as per our rules at the top of the page, please establish the link to your user page, so that readers can see, and evaluate, the contributors here.

Thanks!

I note also that contributor pages are not public.

However, one can Google the name responsible for the additions to cultural anthropology, Jennifer Tanabe, http://www.unification.net/cuth/

This seems just another encyclopedia project with an agenda beyond neutrality, folks. And one where church members get paid support for writing it so.

There are page histories, as in an wiki, and they give names of the editors, and most of thr editor pages i have searched give the qualifications--who are minor academics or writers associated with the movement   [http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/User:Mark_Barry]. [http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/User:David_Doose][http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/User:Jennifer_Tanabe]. [http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/User:Keisuke_Noda].  Their qualifications are not such that we would accept many of them as editors at Citizendium,  but they certainly have considerable greater skills at research and writing than most of the people writing at Wikipedia.  As far, most of their articles are modified Wikipedia articles. They have. as one would expect, added their ideological interpretations, but in much less crude a manner than Conservapedia. They have also greatly tightened and improved the prose and organization of many of the articles.  Used selectively, some parts of their versions of the articles could be valuable here.
