Every time I turn to Wiki for some info, the guy is asking for money? WTF? Is he like the Universe's most recognized crack addict?

Even his own wiki profile makes him out to be a douche.
Oh, he is. The thread debating if he should be stripped of admin powers in the wake of the Fox news attack (claiming there was all sorts of evil Appreciation on wikipedia's servers- Wales unilaterally deleted all sorts of **** in response to the baseless claim, including famous works of art) was one of the most entertaining reads I've had in a while.
If he lost his admin powers, why is he allowed to have his mug shot, Dear Leader style, on the most visited info page in the universe? This guy is evil no doubt. I feel bad for whoever spent all that time writing the article for quantum electrodynamics.
I think wikipedia is a good contribution to society, but the fact is "jimbo" wales did not really invent it. He is a "co-founder", in the same way you can say dustin moskovitz founded facebook.

This. Jimbo is a slimeball and a relentlessly corrupt, self-serving, insufferable douche. Met him in person once, and I've never seen someone so capable of yammering about himself and how great he is for such extended lengths of time. And this is coming from me, mind you.
