I say go for it. We all have to pump our resumes wherever we can, Jimbo. --Jscott 19:11, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
Can you explain what you mean by that? Is there any particular reason why you think it's worthwhile to be snide to me? I have a strong interest in getting history right, and that does not include "pumping my resume" whatever that means. I think my record speaks for itself, there's no need to 'pump' anything. --Jimbo Wales 15:05, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
Well, geez, I didn't even have a chance to spiff up the place before you dropped by!
I doubt I'm saying anything you haven't heard (and dismissed out of hand) before, Jimbo, but you are now eating the same dog food that many, many, many people are having to eat at the hands of your project. The rules that Wikipedia are currently following (which you have broken on notable occasions regarding both your entry and selected others) make it nearly impossible for people to have much control over entries on themselves, and in point of fact, the rules force a conspiracy of rejection of the person contributing things, even indirectly. Obviously, your stature within this community has allowed a lot of stuff to slide that other notables don't get, but your "founder" fight is just going to tarnish you without getting what you want, i.e. Larry Sanger's bullet-riddled body lying in a gutter somewhere.
By the way, I'm giving a small talk about your project at Notacon. (www.notacon.org) Speaking information is here at the bottom. You're more than invited to come; I'll even throw you a few bucks to get you to come by and join the festivities. Don't be shy. --Jscott 16:19, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
