CONFERENCE IN MALLORCA, SPAIN

Dear Mr. Wales,

We would like to invite you to give a conference/speech about free software, open source, and linux in general, in our hometown, Palma, in Mallorca, Spain. We are an association called InfoCoop, which belongs to the UCTAIB, focusing on developing our work within a cooperative effort, especially in education, which started two years back, as a support group for computer science teachers, and which later developed into organizing related events. Last year we invited Xavi de Blas, a university teacher from Barcelona who shoud be coming back to do his linux show later this year, last May we had Richard Stallman talking about GNU/linux, and in October, we will have a journalist, Vicent Partal who is running an online newspaper all based on free/open source software from Barcelona. Now we are trying to organize and book some more lectures, and we would be very interested in having you over here, and listen to what you have to say. The lecture would be open, and we usually count on the cooperation from club Diario de Mallorca, a local newspaper's venue which fits over 200 people. There is also further press coverage, including television, since we keep it open to everyone and invite and send information to all major organizations in the area. Obviously we we would cover travel, food and board, and your own fees. I hope we can meet soon in Mallorca, and attend your lecture, of course. Please let us know about your agenda, availability of dates for 2007-2008-2009, whenever it is more convenient for you (except July, August, everything seems to stop for the summer, over here) and costs.

Thanks for your time, hoping to hear from you soon,

Llorenç Mercer

Why Haven't you let Google buy Misplaced Pages yet?

Just curious, usually Google buys stuff that has severely changed the internet (like Youtube) 68.195.123.26 21:58, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

• Misplaced Pages's greatest asset is the community that creates it. The encyclopedia itself is just an array of data that fits on a disk. How do you sell a community? - Crockspot 22:05, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
  • How do you buy something which cannot be sold? Raul654 22:06, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
    • Everything has a price. 68.195.123.26 22:07, 3 September 2007 (UTC)\
      • And anything can be sold. 68.195.123.26 22:09, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Not the data itself. It is freely licensed. Can't be sold. But if someone wants to cut us all checks or some stock options for our mad editing skilz, I'm all ears. - Crockspot 22:10, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

LOL 22:12, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

You remind me of that person the other day who asked how much for adminship saying 'Everything has a price' ACBest 22:14, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

LOL ACBest. This is most interesting. --Reviewisat(Talk) 22:17, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

If you want to buy it, all money to me, not Jimbo!! ACBest 22:19, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

You wish :D 84.250.110.93 18:55, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Over at WikipediaReview - a website inhabited primarily by users who have been banned from Misplaced Pages for mishebavhior - they were discussing just that, ACBest. The consensus seemed to be that the most abusive admins (from their perspective) who are immune to the rules (again, according to them) could make HUGE money from selling their accounts. Raul654 22:22, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, people think they can sell anything now ACBest 22:23, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

My old World of Warcraft account is worth about £200 (which is like $400). Stupid, really. --Deskana (talky) 22:28, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Just for an online account...how crazy are some people. --Reviewisat(Talk) 22:34, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Some people get conned though - they sell the account, give a fake password, sell again. Its like selling homing pigeons :P ACBest 22:38, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

That's fraud and you could be sued for that. (did I get the words fraud & sued right?) 84.250.110.93 19:00, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

In Brazil a group of people kidnapped a guy to get his password and sell his GunBound account. A.Z. 03:23, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Out of curiosity, though (not like it'd ever happen)...how does one go about buying a nonprofit organization? I mean, Jimbo doesn't own the project, the WM Foundation does. So who/what would the money go to? =David_(contribs) 22:46, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

The money would go to me! MUHAHA! I dont actually know who it would go to... tough question... ACBest 22:48, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

The foundation, I assume, but what's the point of the foundation getting tons of money to spend on the wikis if its sold them all? This discussion is totally pointless, by the way, I don't see why we're continuing with it, especially on Jimbo's talk page. --Deskana (talky) 22:51, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

• When you buy a business (singly owned, or partnership), you agree to purchase the outstanding assets and liabilities of that company. When you "buy" a corporation, what you are actually doing is purchasing 51% of the voting stock (Class A stock, usually. Note that for a company like Warren Buffet's Berskhire Hathoway, one share of class A stock costs around $100,000). A non-profit can sell its assets (the servers, the Foundation trademarks like the name "Misplaced Pages" and logos). So I suppose if the Foundation went bankrupt, you could buy the assets, but that's it. Buying the assets doesn't get you on the Foundation's board of trustees, which (in a legal sense) is how you take over the Foundation. Raul654 23:06, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

What you're thinking:

1. Google gives Jimbo a bunch of money.
2. Jimbo escapes to mootxico and lives like a God-King
3. Google takes over Misplaced Pages, puts google ads on the sides and tops of articles, all goes on as normal. Everybody Wins.

What would actually happen:

1. Google takes over the Wikimedia foundation
2. Huge dramafest over Misplaced Pages
3. Community splits, someone imports the entire Misplaced Pages database offsite, mentions the GFDL, and someone starts a new site. The new site gets most of the community, Misplaced Pages gets most of the popularity (read:vandals)
4. Nobody wins.

--lucid 11:51, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

I would gladly take the money if Jimbo didn't want it. EVula // talk // ☯ // 17:29, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Get on with it, Jimbo will never let us down by selling it to a search machine. Now could we please stop wasting space of our precious encyclopedia :-P ? 84.250.110.93 18:54, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes, get on with it! :-) =David_(contribs) 19:57, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Finally something diffirent

Finally some fun news, I was following recent changes and found 4 vandalism cases. I calculated from that onre hour how long would destroying wikipedia take and here it is it would take with that rate take 479500 hours to destroy wikipedia completely :P heh-he and I do remember that the current rate is low but I'll keep doing this for some time :) ~ Peace keeper IIHow do I spell?... 20:11, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Four vandal edits in an hour? Are you blindfolded? From my own experience, there are at least ten vandalisms a minute, if not many times more than that. - Crockspot 20:15, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes; you have to keep in mind that the RC page updates so fast, it's completely replaced in less than a second most times of day. =David_(contribs) 20:20, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

I chased a half-dozen vandal IPs around one article for half an hour the other day; they were making that many bad edits in a minute or so... Tony Fox (arf!) 20:32, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

If you want a more accurate view, go to this IRC channel, and keep a log of every change made in an hour. Then filter through them to see what's : Good edits, good faith but bad edits, reverts, vandalism, and so on, and then do your statistics --lucid 21:02, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, sure if the IRCs would work for my computer (quite old) But still, even with a rate of 1000 per hour =>2000 hours= 83,4 days wich is a few months or 600 per hour ten a minute 138 days or four months. Or just for the sake of it 100 a minute 13 days, if my math isn't rusty! :P The thing I don't understand is why do the vandals bother? There's uncyclopedia but nooo they have to come to wikipedia, let's start promoting uncyclopedia for vandals, hello your recent edits to never never land are considered vandalism and will result in a block you might consider moving to uncyclopedia if you wish to continue writing nonsence. :P ~ Peace keeper IIHow do I spell?... 13:12, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Even Uncyclopedia has standards. Mr.Z-man 22:30, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Ignorable, that's what it says and is. Still if you want to ruin stuff do it there not where it's supposed to be reliable. ~ Peace keeper IIHow do I spell?... 17:28, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Guess what? Lee Nysted still wants his name, and any likeness of him, deleted...permanently.

For some strange reason(s) User:Yamla, and others here, persist on recreating Lee Nysted's user and talk pages.

Here is the original link that allowed Mr. Nysted to be free of Misplaced Pages, as to his real name. http://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:Jimbo_Wales/Archive_24#Lee_Nysted_requests_that_his_user_page_and_talk_page_be_deleted_per_policy_and_guidelines

I do not think Mr. Nysted has requested that he be re-instated as a user of Misplaced Pages. Please respect his initial request and delete his user and talk pages. Thank you. FP. 9-4-07 Courtesy Copy: LN 9-4-07 OneDayToDay 22:48, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm, seems like Mr. Nysted has reinstated himself by continuing to edit, in spite of his ban. ObiterDicta ( pleadings • errata • appeals ) 03:38, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Not just with that account, either. There have been a substantial number of accounts editing for Mr. Nysted. --Yamla 15:24, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

I think Mr. Nysted is quite comfortabe in Aruba. He has made it abundantly clear that he wants his own name not to be used as a user or talk page, here at Misplaced Pages. Please do not draw any conclusions about Mr. Nysted's activites because of the actions of fans or, as you say, the activity of "a substantial number of accounts." Misplaced Pages policy and guidelines are being ignored in this case and it is hardly worth any more time than it takes to simply do what is right. Thank you for your time, FP. OneDayToDay 16:47, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

It would seem that Mr. Nysted's "fans" all have similar writing styles and use open proxies. Likewise, your first contributions were postings to your own talk and user pages that contained the same sort of Hallmark-card sentiments that Mr. Nysted normally posts to his sockpuppets' user and talk pages when he creates them. A curious set of coincidences wouldn't you say? ObiterDicta ( pleadings • errata • appeals ) 19:13, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

• It must be difficult editing and playing police detective on Misplaced Pages while "practicing law" in Chicago, Mr.O.

What would you do if Mr. Nysted ever becomes notable enough or emo enough for Misplaced Pages? Either way, I think Misplaced Pages editors that want Mr. Nysted to have a user page will help add to his Google hits. The innuendos and accusations are not seemly and certainly look somewhat slanted and not in good faith. OneDayToDay 20:04, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

If Mr. Nysted ever meets the notability criteria, it would be entirely appropriate for someone to create an article on him. This would not automatically lift the ban on Mr. Nysted editing Misplaced Pages, of course. That can be appealed by going to WP:ARBCOM who, if I remember correctly (and I may not) imposed the original ban. --Yamla 20:45, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

• Good, that is settled. Now, please delete Mr. Nysted's user page and his talk page per his request in May 2007. (See above link found in Jimbo's archive.) The ban is not an issue here, today. I am quite confident, Mr. Nysted will never want to edit here while using his real name. Thank you. OneDayToDay 21:07, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

  If you read that link, you'll find that the admin who deleted your pages said, "The deleted pages of course remain accessible to administrators and can always be reinstated if there is any inappropriate activity in the future." "Inappropriate activity" would include continuing to use sock/meatpuppets to evade your ban. ObiterDicta ( pleadings • errata • appeals ) 22:39, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

• Huh? So you assume that I am Lee Nysted and everyone that ever edits anything about Lee Nysted will be seen as a sockpuppet or meat puppet of Lee Nysted? Velly intellestink. Misplaced Pages policy and guidelines / MySpace version? I am truly amazed at the potential scope such an inquiry could take and the lengths to which you and your cabal have gone to assure your ranks that the likes of someone like Lee Nysted will never gain a foothold in this hollow, sorry, hallowed place. Surely someone here will see that your tone and motives are suspect and certainly not up to the standards that have been established here. Thank you for your time. I pray Lee Nysted or his fans will read this and respond to this at some point in the future. OneDayToDay 00:50, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

There is no cabal, and the fact that you know that term and how it applies belies more knowledge about Misplaced Pages's goings-on than an ordinary new user should. I am a complete novice to this conversation, yet I do quite understand why they believe that you have more than a passing relationship with Mr. Nysted. How do you know that he wants his pages deleted while still needing to "pray or his fans will read this"? The fact that you don't have the ability to communicate this to him means that you have no ability to speak for his wishes. Misplaced Pages assumes good faith; but remember, our ultimate goal isn't to assume good faith until we've sold the farm, it's to assume good faith until we've created the largest compendium of human knowledge ever. I'm sure that the other users in question would agree with me. =David_(contribs) 01:37, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

http://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:Jimbo_Wales/Archive_24#Lee_Nysted_requests_that_his_user_page_and_talk_page_be_deleted_per_policy_and_guidelines You can block the name, but not the voice. The letter speaks for itself and it is quite clear. FP. Cc: LN 221.18.4.186 03:32, 6 September 2007 (UTC) Who is he? ~ Peace keeper IIHow do I spell?... 13:18, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

We blanked Lee Nysted's user and talk page by request and on the grounds that the violations of WP:SOCK would end. These violations have recently resumed and so the pages were unblanked. Sockpuppet, meatpuppet, the abuses are continuing. --Yamla 15:23, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, yes let's make the longest thread in the pedia. What's wrong with the site you IP? ~ Peace keeper IIHow do I spell?... 17:40, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

There are many things wrong with this website that I cannot mention here without breaking umpteen "guidelines" and so on, but the most important problem is that the concept is flawed. Misplaced Pages essentially aims to use the wisdom of crowds to produce an accurate encyclopedia, but for a myriad of reasons (analagous to market failure in economics) the concept won't work in an encyclopedic setting. I'm quite confident that the wiki search engine will work though, so long as Jimbo is able to persuade people to contribute. That's not to say that nothing is right about this website, of course. 81.158.96.234 13:59, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

• Nothing's wrong with the site. Unless you're in the Misplaced Pages Review mindset. Then Misplaced Pages seems like hell in Cyberspace. But of course it isn't. --Isis4563 18:01, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

No, it basically is, in my experience.--P4k 18:03, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Hello from Persian Misplaced Pages

Mr. Wales we have a quite situation in Persian Misplaced Pages regarding to the issue of censorship. I wanted to see if in brief I could explain what is going on and if you would give your opinion.

Many Thanks --Kaaveh 01:06, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Jon Burgstone article

I have read the my criticism of the article about Jon Burgstone and found several external, independent references. It appears at least as well sourced as many articles on Misplaced Pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Angielark (talk • contribs) 17:09, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Quoting from Misplaced Pages policy, "The threshold for inclusion in Misplaced Pages is verifiability, not truth. "Verifiable" in this context means that any reader should be able to check that material added to Misplaced Pages has already been published by a reliable source. Editors should provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is challenged or is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed."

The user Bessemer Venture Partners below appears blocked indefinitely from editing Misplaced Pages for various reasons. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Angielark (talk • contribs) 17:04, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Jimmy, what do you think about my criticism of the article about Jon Burgstone? It seems pretty obvious that he or one of his co-workers has puffed up this article to undue proportions for an encyclopedia. --Bessemer Venture Partners 13:29, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Gender-neutral language

User:Tony1 is a professional copy editor who does such great work on featured article candidates that his advice is essentially required reading for FAC nominators. Tony has put together a proposal for adding gender-neutral language to the Manual of Style. His proposal is very mild, it does not require anything of editors, stating only, "Please consider the use of gender-neutral language where this can be achieved in reasonably tidy wording and without loss of precision."

There are very good reasons for using gender-neutral language beyond the fact that the vast majority of newspapers, newswires, and non-fiction publishers already make it their practice. Using the word "man" to refer to a person of either gender evokes images of males only in the minds of both sexes, "filtering out recognition of women's participation in ... major areas of life." (Schneider, J.W., and Hacker, S.L. (1973) "Sex role imagery and use of the generic 'man' in introductory texts" American Sociologist 8, pp. 12-18; a study confirmed e.g. here)

This issue is being discussed at WT:MOS#Proposal for guidelines on gender-neutral language. Sadly, it looks like there will be no consensus for inclusion or excluson of Tony's recommendations. This seems to me like the kind of issue where it would be appropriate for you to step in. If you disagree, I apologize, but I hope you agree and will ask that the recommendations be included in the Manual of Style. Thank you. ←Ben 07:59, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

I support the sentence you have outlined above. I generally keep my own writing completely gender neutral, though I fail on rare occasions. I think the best approach to gender neutrality is a mild and evoluationary approach rather than awkward new constructions, and I also think that the awkward constructions are not necessary.

Can i try to ban this user, she has vandalized Rouge the bat and my userpage on Sonic News Network. Users blocked her many times, so I am about to leave a permanent ban on this user, I need help banning this user. --71.176.13.196 14:11, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

You should discuss this on Administrator Intervention against Vandalism. Also consider creating an account. =David_(contribs) 14:15, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

And who is she, you can't ban if you're not an admin. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Peace keeper II (talk • contribs) 17:44, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

For the record, an admin cannot ban a user either, though they can block one. It is different - see WP:BAN. Only the ArbCom, or Jimbo, or the community by consensus after procedure such as Dispute Resolution, or the Misplaced Pages Foundation can ban a user. Also, if you want action to be taken against a user, it helps if you tell us which one it is! --Anthony.bradbury 12:57, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Citizendum - Need a laugh?

On the very day that The Times published an article expounding the virtues of Citizendum over Misplaced Pages - telling the great British public how reliable their known editors were, it seems they have already a problem. One of "ours" currently named in an arbcom case proved beyond doubt his RL identity to User: Alison in order to prevent a ban for sockpuppetry. However another "true identity" of the same person has now turned up on Citizendum with yet another name (complete with explanations of how difficult it is to pronounce) and inferences that it is on his passport. Too many links to give but there is a flavour of it leading from here . I just hope he has taken his POV with him. Giano 18:46, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Can stop things like this?

There are three of these on this site (alone)slamming wiki editors by name. This is also being spread on the net, and yes I am now one of the ones being unmercifully attacked. Is there anything you or the association can do to stop it? Thanks for your time. Please feel free to email me if that is your preference. --CrohnieGal 11:05, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

This is Jimbo Wales' talk page, not a general enquiry board. Try the help desk or something. --Deskana (talky) 11:16, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
