Untitled[edit]

This category should be re-named per WP:NOTNEO. "Conspiracism" is a cutesy neologism used mainly by professional "anti-conspiracists." Note that Wikipedia has no article on "Conspiracism" -- it's a redirect to Conspiracy theory.

Alternately, perhaps this category should be deleted because it, like so many categories at Wikipedia, lends itself to POV warfare. "Conspiracy theories" usually fall into two categories: "bad" conspiracy theories, with which one disagrees, or the "good" ones which have gained reasonably widespread acceptance and are called simply "theories" or "explanations."
