Statement

My candidacy is a referendum for several important principles. Commercial support activity in concert with open-source free content is natural and beneficial. Wikipedia is doing too much harm with biographies to people who have never had a paper biography written about them. The leadership of the Foundation Board and the Executive Staff of Wikimedia is crippling Wikipedia by failing to take due care and responsibility for the project. These issues affect the Foundation now on a daily basis, and they are destroying at least the English Wikipedia from within. I would challenge the board that acts as steward of the Foundation, and all of its projects, to assume more professional responsibility for the care and management of its flagship project.

Hello Greg. Is there a template for candidates to use (or is that it above?) When is the deadline for submiting? Good straightforward description of issues you support. I suppose I should check information on WMF site, but thought I would stop by here first. GlassBeadGame 19:24, 15 May 2008 (PDT)
