Retired
I have left Wikipedia. I do not see it as acceptable to have advertisements, whether they be for brand identity or for a product, on Wikipedia. It appears that this line has [1]been breached, and those involved, including several on the foundation board and employees, many of whom I respect, see things differently. I understand their position, but cannot accept it as the future of a project that I will continue to contribute my time to. Do not leave notes on my talk page. Email me if you want to keep in touch.
Licensing
I hereby release all my text contributions to Wikipedia under this and my prior account into the public domain. Alternative-to-given licenses for images I contributed may be available by request (as well as larger versions), but I do not check the talk page of this account, so please contact me through other means.
