Editing Unsubstantiated claims of Wikimedia corruption

Evidence of '''Wikimedia corruption''' includes:

=== structural corruption ===

*no actual end user (as opposed to "developer" or "sysop" or "editor") rep on the "board"
*"Wikimedia Foundation" not consulted when legally important decisions made, e.g. [http://mail.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2004-June/000384.html in response to Wikipedia being blocked in China], which is the biggest issue it has ever faced, the [[GodKing]] unilaterally "hereby authorize Andrew Lih to make a statement on our behalf, based on [[usual happy NPOV talk]]."  This was less than one day after the "election" of [[Wikimedia Board of Trustees]] who evidently had no opinion that mattered, on this all-important question.
*false claims added to [[Wikimedia]] article here, and true claims removed
*[[technological escalation]] against [[Recyclopedia]] and threatened against [[Wikinfo]] - attempted coverup with extremely selective event reporting in [[Wikipedia]]
*users not consulted when user environment changes
*solicitation of donations beyond Florida state lines
*withholding of information regarding link transit at [[Wikipedia]] which would be very useful to editors, but also quite profitable for a [[search engine]] like [[Bomis]]
*[[outing]] and concomitant [[libel]] based on [[echo chamber]] claims
*tolerance of extensive [[sysop vandalism]] most notably by [[Auntie Angela]] and [[Hephaestos]]
*tolerance of extensive [[sysop vigilantiism]] and more serious [[developer vigilantiism]], notably by Tim Starling and Erik Moeller
*[[ad hominem delete]] without process, recently spread to [[Meta-Wikipedia]]
*[[ad hominem revert]] allowed to stand
*U.S. and U.K. centric editorial policy, set by people who speak only English

=== individual corruption ===

*[[libel chill]] by Wales, attempting to silence critics of his decisions and appointments, or even just those who point out [[GFDL violation]]s by Wikimedia
*[[Daniel Mayer]] was appointed to the position of Chief Financial Officer on July 4, 2004;  this individual is hardly credible as a reporter of facts or a guardian of any principles, given his long standing participation in [[echo chamber]] and [[libel pit]] activities;  it strongly detracts from credibility of [[Wikimedia]] and [[Wikipedia]] when such a person is in charge of the books
*appointment of [[Tim Starling]] as "developer liaison" presumably to ensure that any features to reinforce [[sysop power structure]] will be high priority, and those that would distribute more power to users would become low priority
