This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 72.21.155.72 (talk) at 11:09, 8 May 2009. The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Hallo! Welcome! My name is Jimmy Wales, and I was born in the wonderful city of Huntsville, Alabama. I founded Wikipedia in 2001. Since 2006, I have been Chair Emeritus of the Wikimedia Foundation, which I founded in 2003. Along with Angela Beesley, I am the co-founder of Wikia. Wikia is a completely separate organization, unrelated to Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Foundation.

Contacting me

Press inquiries: If your press inquiry is strictly about Wikipedia or another Wikimedia project, you can contact me directly by e-mail or you can call the Foundation office and speak to our communications person, Jay, at +1 415 839 6885. If your press inquiry is for my personal views on some general topic, contact my assistant Lisa at press@wikia.com. She knows how to find me as quickly as possible. If your press inquiry is about Wikia (a for-profit company completely separate from Wikimedia/Wikipedia, extending the Wikipedia social model to become "the rest of the library"), also contact Lisa at press@wikia.com.

General Wikipedia questions: You will probably be satisfied by contacting the help desk. Remember, if you're with the press, please follow the instructions above.

Complaints: The best thing to do if you have a complaint is to start with the help desk. Ask a short, friendly question, and Wikipedians will be happy to help you. Contacting me directly with a complaint should be reserved for after you have exhausted all other remedies.

Other inquiries of any kind can be sent by e-mail to jwales@wikia.com. (Press inquiries by e-mail are also welcome.)

Statement of principles

As we move forward with software and social changes, I think it is imperative that I state clearly and forcefully my views on openness and the license. This page, like all Wikipedia pages, is a living, dynamic document, which the community and I will update and clarify as legitimate questions arise.

I should point out that these are my principles, such that I am the final judge of them. This does not mean that I will not listen to you, but it does mean that at some ultimate, fundamental level, this is how Wikipedia will be run.

(But have no fear, as you will see, below.)

  1. Wikipedia's success to date is entirely a function of our open community. This community will continue to live and breathe and grow only so long as those of us who participate in it continue to Do the Right Thing. Doing the Right Thing takes many forms, but perhaps most central is the preservation of our shared vision for the NPOV and for a culture of thoughtful, diplomatic honesty.

  2. Newcomers are always to be welcomed. There must be no cabal, there must be no elite, there must be no hierarchy or structure which gets in the way of this openness to newcomers. Any security measures to be implemented to protect the community against real vandals (and there are real vandals, who are already starting to affect us), should be implemented on the model of "strict scrutiny."

    "Strict scrutiny" means that any measures instituted for security must address a compelling community interest, and must be narrowly tailored to achieve that objective and no other.

    For example: rather than trust humans to identify "regulars" correctly, we must use a simple, transparent, and open algorithm, so that people are automatically given full privileges once they have been around the community for a very short period of time. The process should be virtually invisible for newcomers, so that they do not have to do anything to start contributing to the community.

  3. "You can edit this page right now" is a core guiding check on everything that we do. We must respect this principle as sacred.

  4. Any changes to the software must be gradual and reversible. We need to make sure that any changes contribute positively to the community, as ultimately determined by everybody in Wikipedia, in full consultation with the community consensus.

  5. The GNU Free Documentation License, the openness and viral nature of it, is fundamental to the long-term success of the site. Anyone who wants to use our content in a closed, proprietary manner must be challenged. We must adhere very strictly to both the letter and spirit of the license.

  6. The mailing list will remain open, well-advertised, and will be regarded as the place for meta-discussions about the nature of Wikipedia. Very limited meta-discussion of the nature of the Wikipedia should be placed on the site itself. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. The topic of Wikipedia articles should always look outward, not inward at the Wikipedia itself.

  7. Anyone with a complaint should be treated with the utmost respect and dignity. A person with a complaint should be encouraged constantly to present problems in a constructive way in the open forum of the mailing list. Anyone who just complains without foundation, refusing to join the discussion, I am afraid I must simply reject and ignore. Consensus is a partnership between interested parties working positively for a common goal. I must not let the "squeaky wheel" be greased just for being a jerk.

  8. Diplomacy consists of combining honesty and politeness. Both are objectively valuable moral principles. Be honest with me, but don't be mean to me. Don't misrepresent my views for your own political ends.

The original version of this statement of principles was first published on Wikipedia on 27 October 2001.

I like getting simple messages from people in German, but unfortunately I am not quite ready to engage in real conversations in German.

My name in other languages

You see, Wikipedia is not only a marvelous project — it is also a marvelous interlingual project. For those who speak languages other than English, here's my name translated or transliterated to many languages...

Hello you, speaking any language different from those in the above page — just pop in, and write your own!

Quotations

Wikiquote has quotations related to Jimmy Wales.
  • "Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That’s what we’re doing." – Slashdot interview
  • "To me the key thing is getting it right. And if a person's really smart and they're doing fantastic work, I don't care if they're a high school kid or a Harvard professor; it's the work that matters."
  • "[Wikipedia is] like a sausage: you might like the taste of it, but you don't necessarily want to see how it's made."
  • Greater involvement by scientists would lead to a "multiplier effect", says Wales. Most entries are edited by enthusiasts, and the addition of a researcher can boost article quality hugely. "Experts can help write specifics in a nuanced way," he says. – Nature special report
  • "See that link up there? 'edit this page'. Go for it, it's a wiki." – Jimbo Wales
  • "Mediawiki. It's free! You can run it on your laptop, and you can run the 4th most popular website in the world with it. It's joyful and delicious! It likes ponies!" – Jimbo, completely sober on his talk page

You may edit this page!

Really, you can! Please feel free to do so. Just do it! Make an edit! Make several edits! Make thousands of edits! After all, that's what Wikipedia is all about! (just make sure the edits conform to Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines)

Now, you all know that this is my user page. I like to keep it a certain way, but the thing is, I trust you. Yes, I really do. I trust that you'll add something here that makes me smile, that informs me, or that helps to inform others. If I have things in a certain format, I trust that you will respect that format. Actually, scratch that. Since this page is just so simple and plain, my ultimate dream is that some person who thinks it is fun would come along and make it look perfect, or close to perfect. See that link up here that says 'edit this page'? Go for it. It's a "wiki world"! — Jimbo

N.B. Many Wikipedians have my user page on their watchlist and will edit mercilessly or even remove altogether any bad faith alterations made. This is a wiki, after all. So if you are here to vandalize, why don't you turn around and become a faithful editor? After all, Wikipedia can always use many more faithful editors. It is, of course, a work in progress!

Comments or questions on how this page currently looks should be directed to my talk page.

←Requests and proposals Requests for adminship Archives→
Shortcut
 This page hosts requests for requesting administrator access on the Meta-Wiki; for requesting administrator access on any other wiki, please see the index of request and proposal pages, where a Steward can do the job if required. Bureaucrat, checkuser and bot requests are also made here. Before making a request here, please see the administrator policy.

Requests should be listed here for at least seven days; bureaucrats should only close after this minimum time. Adminship will be granted by a support ratio of at least 75%. If a request hasn't been addressed by a bureaucrat after a lengthy period of time, please leave a note at Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat. Requests may be extended, or put on hold by bureaucrats, pending decision or finding of consensus.

Requests for temporary adminship and bot requests may be less formal and often go for a shorter duration if consensus becomes clear after only a few days of discussion.

All editors with an account on Meta, at least one active account on any Wikimedia project, and a link between the two, may participate in any request and give their opinion of the candidate. However, more active Meta editors' opinions may be given additional weight in controversial cases.

See below for information on prerequisites on submitting a request, and how to add a nomination.

Meta has related information at: 72.21.155.72

==Information== Note that this page is for access on Meta only. See the Steward requests/Permissions page for adminship/deadminship requests on other projects.

===Regular adminship=== #Before requesting admin access, please ensure you meet all of the minimum criteria: #* Be an administrator, bureaucrat, or checkuser on a local Wikipedia or related project. #* Have a user page on Meta, with links to the user pages on other participated projects. This can state that SUL is activated or be provided via a Wiki matrix if that is not possible. #* Have a valid contact address (either a confirmed email address in preferences, or a valid email address on the user page). #* Are currently an active contributor on Meta. This is a subjective, not an objective, measure and there is no official post count. # As Meta has a cross wiki role admins here are expected to have cross wiki experience. SUL confirmation or a matrix will mean that editing on other wikis can be easily seen. It would be expected that those seeking adminship here would have both reasonable experience here and on other wikis. # Given the multi lingual nature of Meta, {{user language}} information will be of use to others. # Place a request on this page, by transcluding a subpage, for example {{Meta:Requests for adminship/Example}}. Please put the newest request on the top. Bear in mind that even if you do meet the criteria above this does not mean that the community will automatically approve a request. Please add a minimum ending date to the election, allowing a full 7 day period from the first timestamp.

===Bureaucratship=== Add your request below under the bureaucratship section. Please note: * only active administrators can become bureaucrats, and only after 6 months of regular adminship * User is endorsed by two current bureaucrats after he/she nominates themselves here If you fail any of these requirements, you will not be assigned the bureaucrat flag. For more information see Meta:Bureaucrats

===Other access=== * Temporary adminship: If you need temporary sysop access for a particular reason (such as ability to edit protected pages), you may request temporary adminship on meta. In this case, adminship shall be granted with no requirements and approval, but the user will promise to limit their activity to the necessity of what they asked for. Temporary sysop access will normally be valid for one month. * Bot: Please read the bot policy. This wiki allows global bots and automatic approval of certain types of bots; for other bots, add your request below under the bot section, in the same way as an admin request. * Checkuser: please read the CheckUser policy and add your request below under the checkuser section, in the same way as an admin request.

Proof. If h satisfies the ordinary heat equation ht = △h with respect to the evolving metric gij(t), then we have d dt R hu = 0 and d dt R hv ≥ 0. Thus we only need to check that for everywhere positive h the limit of R hv as t → T is nonpositive. But it is easy to see, that this limit is in fact zero. 9.4 Corollary. Under assumptions of the previous corollary, for any smooth curve γ(t) in M holds − d dt f(γ(t), t) ≤ 1 2 (R(γ(t), t) + |γ˙ (t)|2) − 1 2(T − t) f(γ(t), t) (9.2) Proof. From the evolution equation ft = −△f + |∇f|2 − R + n 2(T−t) and v ≤ 0 we get ft+1 2R−1 2 |∇f|2− f 2(T−t) ≥ 0. On the other hand,− d dtf(γ(t), t) = −ft− < ∇f, γ˙ (t) >≤ −ft + 1 2 |∇f|2 + 1 2 |γ˙ |2. Summing these two inequalities, we get (9.2). 9.5 Corollary. If under assumptions of the previous corollary, p is the point where the limit δ-function is concentrated, then f(q, t) ≤ l(q, T − t), where l is the reduced distance, defined in 7.1, using p and τ (t) = T − t.

As you can clearly see by the below reference subset-sum problem we have proven P=NP.
