| | #REDIRECT [[alleged Wikimedia corruption]] |
| | |
| *withholding [[Wikimedia Board of Trustees]] election results from the voters! [http://mail.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2004-June/000360.html apparently there will be NO release of figures (!), even on a sitewide basis, according to directives by Jimbo] the [[GodKing]] of Wikimedia and [[Bomis]]
| |
| *no [[independent board]] free of influence from [[Bomis.com]]
| |
| *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.
