Black Knight satellite and claim of ambiguity
There's nothing ambiguous about conspiracy theorists, we have an article on them. And changing what sourced text says to what you personally think it should say is a violation of WP:VERIFY. Doug Weller (talk) 13:42, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

"Conspiracy theorist" is often misapplied and used as a disparaging term to silence views that many regard as controversial. It is by no means a neutral term and you know it. Conspiracy_theory - This article as currently written, along with many others like it on this site, portrays people who hold unorthodox propositions in a negative light. C.B.

 * Well, we are unabashedly a mainstream encyclopedia, and it's sourced. Doug Weller (talk) 18:45, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

"unabashedly a mainstream encyclopedia" hmm. So that makes it incumbent upon you to willfully support the ostracization of those whose views are controversial by 'mainstream' standards? That's what applying a non-neutral, derogatory term to the beginning of an article does... but oh well, no point in arguing. I'm sure you mean well.
