]]> <![CDATA[Who's really running Wikipedia?]]> Owen: Seth Finkelstein wrote a blog entry: Debunking Wikimedia Foundation "executive chairman" story which does a pretty good job of indicating that on this one, you struck out. Basically, in Florida, there is no legal standard on this kind of paperwork and Seth says that EC can mean whatever they want it to mean.

]]> <![CDATA[Who's really running Wikipedia?]]> Seth Finkelstein, who understands Wikipedia well enough to successfully invite them to remove his biography with his article I'm on Wikipedia, get me out of here does a hard-hitting contradiction of your take on this matter on his blog with Debunking Wikimedia Foundation "executive chairman" story. Basically: there's no legal standard and EC can mean whatever they want it to mean. Keep up the good fight Owen, but you struck out this time. Remember to do all your homework before hitting that "submit" button.

I am Jimmy Wales. You got me. R. Marsden, er, I mean, mediawhoremeowdogcat, and I are in this together to make her famous and me look like, ah, whatever (Rebecca, quick, that's your cue to post another snappy comment about Jimmy). I will let her take it from here. Thanks for posting, and don't say I never did anything for you.

]]> <![CDATA[Who's really running Wikipedia?]]> @foofoo:

I find it hard to believe that you genuinely think that this post is merely about establishing a relationship between Wales and Wikipedia. The post is obviously about the nature of that relationship. It is stated on the Foundation website that Wales is merely Emeritus Chair, and is therefore, as the post states, supposedly just a figurehead (albeit also a board member), with Devouard being above him, as Chair. But the above extract seems to contradict this, because Wales seems to be Executive, not Emeritus, Chair. This is obviously important, because, if true, it means that the community - and possibly including Devouard herself - has been seriously misled.

foofoo, are you perhaps Jimmy Wales?! Your fairly weak attempt to discredit this post as being merely about establishing a link between Wikipedia and Wales is reminiscent of Wales' previous attempts to deflect questions/criticisms... ;-)

]]> <![CDATA[Who's really running Wikipedia?]]> Ok, so the true Secret Master of Wikipedia is one of:

Jimmy Wales, Sue Gardner, Erik Moeller, Florence Nibart-Devouard, The Bavarian Illuminati, Google, The Freemasons, Microsoft, The Rosicrucians, Paris Hilton, The CIA, Ashley Alexandra Dupré, The Mafia, Julia Allison, Fidel Castro, Michael Arrington's Blog Continuum, Vladimir Putin, The Two-Fifty, or Ceiling Cat.

Thanks for clearing that up.

]]> <![CDATA[Who's really running Wikipedia?]]> So Wales IS the real chair, and Devouard was only made to believe she was in charge. Wait. I thought he "graciously stepped aside"? Is it any surprise that a control freak like Wales would pull a stunt like this?

]]> <![CDATA[Who's really running Wikipedia?]]> On the other end of things, this is fascinating and I'm really glad you guys posted it.

]]> <![CDATA[Who's really running Wikipedia?]]> This is about as interesting as a bunch of legal filings. News flash: Today Valleywag announces that Jimmy Wales has something to do with wikipedia! Dude, you lost me with this one.
