Is absolute access to all information a healthy goal for society?

Jimmy Wales, the co-founder of Wikipedia has expressed the belief that everyone should have access to all information. YouTube allows its viewers to flag content but also allows liquor ads and certain violent and/or sexual material to remain in it own “safety mode”. MTV and many other music and entertainment sites operate without little or no discrimination of content. Is there is the possibility for negative influence and unhealthy behavior as a result of certain influences (especially when concerning developing minds). Is all information harmless, generally speaking? Is the risk for possible societal harm worth absolute access to all information? Can a butterfly effect of the mind occur wherein unhealthy influence can cause extreme social problems? Is it healthy to not question things that one wants and/or finds convenient?

Is a co-founder of Wikipedia lacking integrity?

There is a big scandal on Wikipedia right now, where one co-founder (Larry Sanger) has called the other co-founder (Jimmy Wales) a liar. Consider the background about Wales -- does he lack integrity? * Opinions on nursing profession for his first wife. * Characterization of the "Bomis Babes" web portal. * Characterization of himself as "sole founder" of Wikipedia, then refusing to engage any audience on the matter when facts are presented to him that disprove this claim. * Flip-flopping on paid editing of freely-licensed content. * Accusations of seeking Foundation reimbursement for a massage parlor visit. * Seeking reimbursement for a $1300 dinner-for-four ($650 of it for wine). * Initial reaction to the "Essjay" scandal. * Promising the media a "credential verification" plan for Wikipedia. * Hosting private mailing lists on Wikia, Inc. servers that conducted surveillance of suspicious editors of Wikipedia. * Editorial judgment surrounding the Wikipedia article about Rachel Marsden. * Promising the media a "flagged revisions" plan for Wikipedia. * Wikia, Inc. taking rental money for office space (at higher than the lowest bid) from the Wikimedia Foundation. * Telling a reporter just weeks ago that Search Wikia was "cranking away", then closing it down. Note to respondents: All of the bullet points above can be substantiated with documented public evidence. I simply did not take the time and space to provide all the links you would need. Furthermore, I omitted several issues even more deplorable, but are based only on hearsay.
Answer: Larry Sanger: I would say that he does not lack integrity. This would be a valid concern for any business person who thinks that their boss is swindling the money away from their paychecks. Considering all of the background to this problem, I would say that he would first have to prove that Jimbo Wales really did the things listed above and then if he can prove or substantiate them, then he can definitely bring it to the attention of the rest of the Wikimedia Foundation. I know that Jimbo Wales is a human being just like the rest of us, however, it is starting to look like he is becoming more and more stressed out from being in the limelight so much recently. He is starting to make more and more mistakes because of this. If I were him, I would just take a break from the whole thing to relax and calm/cool down. I definitely do not think that he is lacking integrity because they are definitely valid points that have been brought up. Jimbo Wales: Yeah, one could say that he lacks integrity, but still, even if he does lack integrity, without him, Wikipedia would never have even come into existance, so for that, I am very happy. These issues (some of them anyways) are simply not that aggregous to warrant any kind of name calling on this scale or level. Jimbo Wales probably just has way to much on his plate and he is probably getting very overwhelmed, which is probably making him make more mistakes than usual. This could easily explain several of the things that you listed. Yeah, he did publicly announce that he wanted to push Flagged Revisions through quickly, but this has not happened yet because the community was (mostly) in favor of NOT having Flagged Revisions. I could go into depth of each of the points you brought up and bring up many different counterarguments, but I do believe that these things combined as a whole make me believe that Wales could be lacking integrity. This: * Opinions on nursing profession for his first wife. and this: * Accusations of seeking Foundation reimbursement for a massage parlor visit. Are just things that have absolutely no bearing on his integrity as a whole because they are things that any person would do in his position as an overworked and underpaid person of a company. Both of these are things that aren't that big of a deal and should hold no bearing over a judgement of his character. This: * Characterization of himself as "sole founder" of Wikipedia, then refusing to engage any audience on the matter when facts are presented to him that disprove this claim. actually shows good judgement on his part because if someone wants to heatedly debate a point that he made, a person who was thinking well would either just ignore it or not reply to it and let third-party (people that are not that involved with the discussion) reply to it. Therefore, this strengthens my opinion of his character, but not when such severe things as * Initial reaction to the "Essjay" scandal. and especially this: * Hosting private mailing lists on Wikia, Inc. servers that conducted surveillance of 'suspicious' editors of Wikipedia. are prevelant, especially that second point, because this could be put under a violation of the privacy of the editors of Wikipedia, and this puts serious concern in my mind about his integrity. I hope that this is what you were looking for :).

What "illegal pedophilia" was the co-founder of Wikipedia talking about?

He Tweeted about it: http://twitter.com/lsanger/status/11781396377

Does Jimmy Wales edit with a NPOV when it comes to pretty brunettes?

There seems to be a pattern with the Wikipedia edits of co-founder Jimmy Wales, when he decides to monkey with the article biographies of attractive, dark-headed women: http://www.examiner.com/wiki-edits-in-national/wikipedia-co-founder-assists-another-damsel-distress What gives?
Answer: Turns out that the Georgian-born brunette in question had in fact lived in Canada in the years prior to her rise to power in the Georgian government. So perhaps Jimbo thinks he has a chance with her. Who appointed such an inexperienced woman to the Cabinet? Saakashvili, a man after Jimbo's heart. I have no problem with Wales so blatantly flouting Wikipedia policies. I just wish he'd come out and admit that Wikipedia policies don't apply to him.

Has the co-founder of Wikipedia ever had a relationship with someone who didnt like their Wikipedia article?


Answer: My first instinct was to say that this is none of our business. Let the man carry on with his life. The problem here is that Jimbo Wales selectively broke the NPOV rule (which he came up with, or probably has claimed to have come up with it) to change Rachel Marsden's wikibio to her liking. What if Madonna didn't like her entry in Britannica? Is there someone she could sleep with to get it changed to her liking? And would she learn she got dumped by an announcement in the 2011 yearbook supplement?

To whom does Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales owe $30,000?

I heard that he owes a colleague a personal loan of $30K, but Id need to see substantive proof. My need, as with all free culture zealots, is that "information wants to be free". My financial details are not a matter of public record. I believe Wales are.
Answer: There is this crazy dude called Gregory Kohs who has combed through piles and piles of publicly available documents and figured out that Jimbo Wales owes former business partner Gil Penchina that amount, give or take a few cents. I believe he's also dug up what the Jimbomeister will be paying in alimony, but that's crossing the line, in my opinion.

Who is covering something up in this Wikipedia discussion?

I get the sense that Ting "Wing" Chen is trying desperately (but ultimately failing) to conceal the fact that an unethical lease agreement was carried out by the Wikimedia Foundation, on whose Board of Trustees Chen sits. http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer_Diskussion:Wing#Conflict_of_interest_in_Wikia_.2F_WMF_office_rental It would be nice to get an independent assessment of what average people think happened that day when the Wikimedia Foundation board discussed renting office space from one of the co-founders side businesses, but somehow failed to include that discussion in the board minutes, and somehow failed to ask the co-founder to excuse himself from the discussion, as the foundation by-laws dictate.
Answer: In any investigation into bias, undue influence, conflict of interest or self-dealing in an executive decision, you start with the question "Who stood to gain from it?" It appears that the sublease of two conference rooms by Wikia, the for-profit wiki farm, to the Wikipedia Usability Initiative for the period January 2009 to March 2010 is the subject of the question here. A logical place to start would be by looking at the names of those who were board of trustees or executive staff members for the WMF back in January 2009, and those who were corporate executives for Wikia at that same time, and see if any of the names match. Sure enough, there is one match: Jimmy Wales, the "God-King" and "Sole Founder" of Wikipedia himself. Wales has been a WMF board member since its founding in 2003, and he is also co-founder and chairman of Wikia. As the asker indicates, there was no discussion of the sublease in the board minutes for January, 2009, and there is no indication of any recusal by Mr. Wales as would have been mandatory under the WMF's conflict of interest policy. Accordingly, it would appear that Mr. Chen (just evelated to board chair) was playing hide-the-ball on Wales' behalf. However, one should not be shocked at this flouting of the rules. The WMF has long presented a reflection of the mendacity, irresponsibility and self-dealing of Jimmy Wales, its co-founder and "Chairman Emeritus". For instance, Executive Director Sue Gardner's recent statement to Fox News that "Wikipedia has a long-held, zero-tolerance policy towards pedophilia or pedophilia advocacy and child pornography." But then, that is another and more sordid story.

What is an "expenses rort", as it applies to a co-founder of Wikipedia?

I thought the bill for the steakhouse dinner for four was $1200.
Answer: The term "expenses rort" is a (mostly Australian) slang term for "misappropriation of funds," usually in relation to an employee or executive expense account. Wikipedia co-founder Jimbo Wales has often been accused of questionable expense accounting, most notably for a $600 restaurant meal for four in St. Petersburg, FL, and several hundred dollars on "massages" while on a trip to Moscow. However, since the Wikimedia Foundation seems to exist primarily to glorify Jimbo, there is some question as to whether any use of such funds can be considered inappropriate use. At the moment, the question is also somewhat moot; in order to avoid criticism of his expense accounting, Jimbo has since moved into a cave, and eats only nuts and berries that he gathers in the nearby forest. Apparently he hasn't changed his underwear since November 2007, and is therefore avoided by the other forest creatures.

Wikipedia Turns 10: Reliable Source or Rathole of Misinformation?

Its the place where most of us go when we need information about a person, place or thing -- and fast. The "Cliff Notes" of modern-day society, if you will. And its finally turning 10 on Saturday. In its decade online, Wikipedia has accomplished a lot. Its redefined how we look at reference-style encyclopedias, its almost always in the top 10 Google results for practically any search, and its the fifth most popular website in the world. But popularity aside, does the website have the quality to be taken seriously as a reliable source of information? In a recent interview with Wired.co.uk, Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales says the quality of information on the site is only improving -- and that it is ultimately up to users to keep things looking up. "Its really important that our community remain steadfastly committed to taking quality really seriously," said Wales. "We are thoughtful and noble individuals working together in peace and by choice for a common goal." Way to keep us motivated, Jimmy! Power to the people! So whats next for the user-generated site? "More languages, more information and higher quality," according to Wales. Wikipedia will open its first office outside of the U.S. this year, in India. Do you think Wikipedia is a reliable source of information or a giant hub of inaccuracy? My opinion is Wikipedia is true most of the time. And sometimes Wikipedia is not true. I think it depends on the topic.
Answer: I agree with you 100%. Wiki is true most of the time, but then again, some people like to change it to wrong stuff. Wiki is safe to use. I used to use it for school everyday almost! I have never got any ratty information off of it.

How many times has Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales been married?

A recent article in the news in Alabama honored Jimmy Wales with being the Alabamian of the year. The article said he lives in St. Petersburg with his wife and daughter. I thought the last wife in St. Petersburg divorced him after the Rachel Marsden affair, so is this a new wife that the Alabama press is referencing? EDIT: So, if the Alabama press cant even get a simple fact like Wales separation from his second wife, how accurate is their dubbing him "Alabamian of the Year"?
Answer: According to Wikipedia, Wales has been married twice. That article calls him a "co-founder" of Wikipedia, but still, I think a grain of salt is called for. The statement is sourced with an article from W magazine and an interview on C-SPAN. In the case of W magazine, one would hope that they would get independent verification, and not just grab a fact off Wikipedia as apparently did the Alabama reporter who couldn't remember where Wales lives with his wife and daughter.

Apple Co-founder Steve Jobs is an Arab?

So the inventor of iPhone, iPod and MAC (the first graphical user interface maker) is an Arab Muslim?? That is Insane! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs Steve Jobs: Chairman and CEO, Apple Inc.[3] Board of Directors, Walt Disney Company[4] Jobs was born in San Francisco[1] and was adopted by Paul and Clara Jobs (née Hagopian[22]) of Mountain View, California, who named him Steven Paul. Paul and Clara later adopted a daughter, who they named Patti. Jobs biological parents – Abdulfattah Jandali, a Syrian Muslim[23] graduate student who later became a political science professor,[24] and Joanne Simpson, an American graduate student[23] who went on to become a speech therapist[25] – later married, giving birth to and raising Jobs biological sister, the novelist Mona Simpson.[her Husband created The Simpsons while adpoting her name] Although he dropped out after only one semester,[32] he continued auditing classes at Reed, such as one in calligraphy, while sleeping on the floor in friends rooms, returning Coke bottles for food money, and getting weekly free meals at the local Hare Krishna temple.[15] Jobs then traveled to India with a Reed College friend (and, later, the first Apple employee), Daniel Kottke, in search of spiritual enlightenment. He came back a Buddhist with his head shaved and wearing traditional Indian clothing.[33][34] During this time, Jobs experimented with psychedelics, calling his LSD experiences "one of the two or three most important things [he had] done in [his] life".[35] He has stated that people around him who did not share his countercultural roots could not fully relate to his thinking.[35]

Is Jimmy Wales of Wikipedia fame guilty of extortion?

I keep reading stories about Jimmy Wales taking money to change wiki pages. Doesnt make a lot of sense to me. Not that I think hes innocent or anything. Most of the administrators at Wikipedia have their own agendas and are clearly out of control so why would the co-founder be any different? Its the fact that anyoner would be stupid enough to give that clown any money. http://www.jimmywales.org
Answer: As has been said elsewhere, there's no evidence to support those claims. It's also very annoying, as one of those "administrators at Wikipedia" to hear that we're all "[on our] own agenda's [sic]" and "clearly out of control". If you like, you're quite free to view the entire list of my nearly 15,000 contributions and judge whether I've ever pushed any sort of agenda whatsoever: < http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Nihiltres >. Have fun; you won't find anything interesting. I imagine that these stories come about as the result of misunderstandings and bad faith from people who have had issues with their Wikipedia page. This is how the story probably *actually* unfolds: 1. Person X views their Wikipedia page and sees something they don't like. 2. Person X then emails Wikipedia through the OTRS email system with a message asking people to fix the entry somehow. 3. At some point along, they donate to the Wikimedia Foundation, perhaps with some misguided idea that this will help them. 4. OTRS volunteers do something to clean up the entry, given Wikipedia's strict "biographies of living persons" policy (< http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons >) 5. Either Person X is unsatisfied with the change, the change hasn't been made because it's justified and well-sourced criticism about the person, someone re-added the material, et cetera, and Person X gets annoyed with Wikipedia. 6. Person X then goes to the media and says, for petty revenge, "I paid for edits on Wikipedia! WOW!" and the media jumps on the juicy story.

Is Wikipedia socially irresponsible?

The expressed goal, by Wikipedia’s co-founder Jimmy Wales, is to make all information available without censorship. Wikipedia has direct links to extreme pornography and violence oriented websites. If the internet is a social medium, and if Wikipedia endorses pornography and violence by allowing direct links to sites which include both (Evil Angel/Extreme Associates/rotten.com, etc.) and if people, including children, can easily be exposed to the information available therein, then how could the maintainers of Wikipedia be acting with socially responsibility. I am not asking whether or not the maintainers of the site ‘should’ be socially responsible. I also don’t believe that the argument of parental responsibility trumping artistic or media responsibility is valid. Nor do I consider it a valid argument to say that people are free not to visit the site, as many people are unaware of the facts I that am addressing about it, and children are not always in the position to understand the consequences for what they are doing online. If someone can give me a logical answer for how this site is not socially irresponsible, then it would be most appreciated. I am using the Socratic method here, but I also acknowledge that such an argument may be possible.
Answer: They don't just have links to it, but from what I remember, there's porn on Wikipedia. It's probably been cleaned and censored by Jimmy Wales by now after it came to his attention that people were under the impression that there was child porn or links to it on Wikipedia. Jimmy is a strange guy. He originally funded the site from his site bomis.com, which featured nude photos of women. Is it socially irresponsible? Definitely. I've tried to get Jimmy Wales' attention on some of these issues, but he doesn't seem to care. Wales is into objectivism or Randism and actually wrote that charity is weakness, or some such stuff. People upload pictures of their own genitalia and it's kept because "WP:WIKIPEDIA IS NOT CENSORED." They have some pretty explicit and disturbing photos, and people who write there and the sysops don't even have the common decency to link to the pictures or put them "below the fold." For example, in the "feces" article there was edit warring for years over having a picture of human feces. Really, it wasn't necessary to have that if you're human and have looked in the toilet after taking a dump. I mean, are they expecting aliens to read Wikipedia? Obviously, Wikipedia is censored. Admins oversight and delete user comments all the time. Wikipedia also pushes a pretty leftist agenda. For example, there is a surprising number of "transsexuals" on the site in positions of power. There's an article on Alexis Arquette, the brother of the more famous Arquette family actors. He's called a woman and referred to with female pronouns when it's pretty clear from watching "The Surreal Life" that he's really a balding, middle-aged man in drag. You can't even edit that article without trouble. I think they should change the slogan for the site from "The encyclopedia anyone can edit" to "The encyclopedia anyone but you can edit." Essentially, Wikipedia is socially irresponsible because it gives undue weight to crank theories and those who want to get away with posting photos that are unpleasant to look at. Also, Erik Moeller, one of the higher ups in the Wikimedia foundation has written opinions favorable to pedophiles. Another Wikimedia official, Gerard Way, tells people on his userpage that he has a wife *and* a girlfriend. He's also into dressing in drag. I told Wales he needs to fire these perverts to save the site's image, but he wouldn't hear of it. Maybe if enough people write to him about it, things will change.

Is this new series on History Channel just going to be propaganda?

America - The Story of Us Its sponsored by Bank of America, and instead of having commercial interruptions every five minutes it seems to use every other break to bleed into a three minute segment about how great the BoA is and how fundamental it is to our nation, its filmed and appears to be apart of the show to hide that its a commercial. The show started with Obama announcing it, and they seem to use big government persons such as Giuliani and Colin Powell, Newt Gingrich and other people like Brian Williams and Tom Brokaw of NBC, the Wikipedia co-founder, screenwriters, Donald Trump, Michael Douglas, Martha Stewart, comedians Bill Maher and George Lopez, rapper P Diddy and other Hollywood stars instead of as many historians... Its seems to have started out good so far but I have a feeling towards the end of the series its going to stress the importance of big government or some other agenda. Has anyone watched this yet? What did/do you think of it?
Answer: I wish I could recall exactly, or have a link, but there was some serious issues raised a year ago, about the American Arts Endowment Organization ( ??? ), being too tied in with Obama and some of his Czars. There were even a few phone recordings made, where this org wanted to "spread" the word about Obama through grants to independent and major programming stories. I've noticed a trend this past year, on the more "scare" tactics type of programming, especially with "Global Warming".
