User:Shii/Jimbo makes mistakes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The reason Jimbo Wales has the final say in all decisions on Wikipedia is because his office chair is within reaching distance of the power strip supplying electricity to the Wikipedia servers. It is not because he is especially smart or has made particularly good decisions in the past.
When Jimbo is simply discussing something and does not specifically state that he is making policy, there is no reason to assume that his opinion is the right one.
Even when he is making a decree, no decision of Jimbo's has a Golden Bull attached. If you believe something he said is wrong, you are free to discuss it. If you disagree with a fundamental tenet of Wikipedia, such as the neutral point of view, you are free to fork the database and work on your own version.
This is not a personal essay, it is meant to be a general statement reflecting multiple opinions. Feel free to edit this essay to suit yourself, or move it to some other name. Ashibaka tock 22:08, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
