Who Founded or Co-Founded Wikipedia? I want to know who's right!

Nupedia founded

 * In 2000, Wales founded Nupedia. At some point Wales hires Sanger.

Idea of using Wiki

 * "Sanger [...] says he got the idea of using "wiki" technology [...] and proposed it to Wales in 2001."

Editor in Chief

 * Slashdot, submitted by Jimbo: "Larry Sanger, editor-in-chief of the Nupedia and Wikipedia sister projects." Links to "About the author: Larry Sanger is the editor-in-chief of Nupedia and chief instigator of Wikipedia. He received his Ph.D. in Philosophy last year. He enjoys writing about himself and his projects in the third person. :-)" So written by Sanger I guess.

December FAQs

 * Earliest available about December 2001. Author unknown: "Q. When did the Wikipedia start? A. January 15, 2001. An earlier version of the wiki (including original versions of some of these pages) was briefly hosted on Nupedia.com (first posted January 10). The idea of a Nupedia-sponsored wiki originated out of a conversation Larry Sanger had with Ben Kovitz on the evening of January 2."

Sanger Full Time editor

 * "full-time editor Larry Sanger"

Mailing list

 * Checked Nupedia-l emails for Jan 2001 but no mention before this 10 Jan. Larry seems to be working as a technical guru or webmaster. There are other lists too.
 * 10 Jan
 * Larry suggests an "experimental" Wiki as a "Nupedia Wiki." Larry claims " It's an idea to add a little feature to Nupedia. Jimmy Wales thinks that many people might find the idea objectionable, but I think not" so obvious discussion first.
 * Larry: "It hasn't yet been linked from the website, so if you're very concerned that we're going to make utter jackasses of ourselves and you want to stop us from doing this, speak up!"
 * 11 Jan
 * Support from Cindy Lynn
 * Larry mentions "wikipedia", no mention who coined phrase. Reply to an [Advisory-l] email.
 * 17 Jan
 * Larry: "Wikipedia is up", "wikipedia.com".
 * 20 Jan
 * Wikipedia-l set up.
 * Slashdot from, nupedia and gnupedia. Anything nu can do gnu can do better ;-)

Press release 2002

 * Originally written by Larry
 * "The founders of Wikipedia are Internet entrepreneur Jimmy Wales and philosopher Larry Sanger. Wales has supplied the financial backing and other support for the project, and Sanger [...] has led the project."

Press release 2003

 * Probably copied wording from 2002 version, but was written by Maveric149.

Press release 2004

 * By Maveric149. "The Wikipedia project was founded in January 2001 by Internet entrepreneur Jimmy Wales and philosopher Larry Sanger. Bomis (bomis.com), an Internet web portal owned by Wales, supplied the financial backing and other support, while Sanger led the Wikipedia project during its first year, as a full-time paid editor. Since then it has operated mostly on consensus, using policies refined over time by its contributors."

Guardian

 *
 * Sanger: "[Jimbo] saw that I was essentially looking for employment online and he was looking for someone to lead Nupedia ... Nupedia wasn't there at all, in fact it was just the vaguest of ideas. Jimmy was frustratingly brief in his instructions, he simply wanted an encyclopedia that everyone could contribute to and that would be released under what he called an open content licence."
 * Sanger: "Originally it was the Nupedia Wiki - our idea was to use it as an article incubator for Nupedia."
 * Guardian: "Then, in 2002, Sanger left Wikipedia. In the wake of the dotcom crash, the company that owned and ran Nupedia, Bomis, was suffering too, and Wales had to lay off most of the staff, including Sanger. Wikipedia was henceforth run by Wales and the Wikipedia community."

Sanger's explanation on userpage

 *
 * Sanger, from memoirs: "To be clear, the idea of an open source, collaborative encyclopedia, open to contribution by ordinary people, was entirely Jimmy's, not mine... The actual development of this encyclopedia was the task he gave me to work on."
 * Sanger: "I named it"
 * Sanger: "I actually wrote the first organizational and policy pages for Wikipedia, publicized it, managed it, and in many other ways got it started."
 * Day-to-day work - enforce on recent changes, some recruiting + welcoming, worked similar to an admin (content disputes/bans etc), "much else"
 * Shared - set up software, set up policies. Wales increased role as time went on
 * Sanger: I was "the person assigned to manage the Bomis-sponsored encyclopedia projects [...] Throughout my employment, Jimmy Wales made it perfectly clear that I was the primary person responsible for the encyclopedia projects."

Recent resources

 * http://www.cadenhead.org/workbench/news/2828/wikipedia-founder-looks-out-number-1
 * http://www.larrysanger.org/roleinwp.html
 * Slashdot investigates: part one part two

Working hyoithesis

 * Sanger was an employee (2001 Nupedia founded) but is "Editor in Chief" (many sources).
 * Wikipedia evolved from Nupedia.
 * Nupedia = "an encyclopedia that everyone could contribute to" with open content license (2006 Guardian)
 * Use of wiki to achieve this "originated out of a conversation Larry Sanger had with Ben Kovitz on the evening of January 2." (2001 December FAQs)
 * General direction and finance comes from Wales (2007 explanation on userpage)

Thoughts

 * The buck ultimately stopped at Jimbo; but did Jimbo's role go further at the start of Wikipedia?

Checking for existing articles

Hello, thanks for posting your concern on my talk page. The Blue Angels article you created was a duplicate of an already existing article, so I flagged it as a "dupe", and later merged its contents into the current article. As Brian said, you can see a list of "articles in development", or articles that are created but not published yet, at the Newsroom, and also near the bottom of the Main Page.

Thank you for your contributions, they are very much appreciated, and welcome to Wikinews! —Zachary talk 18:59, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Nusbit. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Nusbit~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

High turnout observed in French presidential election

April 22, 2007

As voting began in the first round of the presidential elections, French voters showed up at polling stations at a brisk pace on Sunday. The reported that by noon local time, turnout had reached 31.2%, a level not seen since 1981 and ten percent higher than the last election for.

Voting stations were to begin closing at 6:00 p.m., but those in large cities will be open until 8:00 p.m. Initial projections are expected to be published at that time, based on a partial count of votes from hundreds of stations around the country.

Romain Pinault, an election official at a school in Paris' eighth district, told Associated Press a second voting station was added to handle the extra voters, "The participation rate [at this location] is about 30 percent more than five years ago."

Nicolas Sarkozy of the UMP and Ségolène Royal of the Socialist Party are considered the frontrunners. But the latest opinion polls suggested a third of the 44.5 million registered voters were still not sure of their choice, lending hope to third-placed candidate François Bayrou (UDF) and to Jean-Marie Le Pen, whom most polls had in fourth.

One of the reasons for the high turnout seems to be that there are 3.3 million newly registered voters, many from lower-income immigrant neighborhoods, many of which saw. Nicolas Sarkozy was interior minister at the time and was criticized for his handling of the situation.

Local Socialist leader Ali Romdhane, who led a campaign drive in such a neighborhood, told the Los Angeles Times, "In a way, Sarkozy helped us. Our slogan was, 'Vote instead of vandalize.' We told the young people that their strength rested in their voter identification card. And they are the ones who are going to make the difference."

If a candidate receives a majority of the vote in this round, the election is over. However, polls suggest that is an unlikely outcome. The second round will be between the two leading candidates from today's vote and will take place on Sunday, May 6, 2007. This is the ninth presidential election of the.

Wikinews Shorts: April 22, 2007

Irregularities, violence mar Nigeria polls
Violence, ballot stuffing and a shortage of voting slips marred Saturday's presidential polls in Nigeria. Sixteen people were reported killed and an attempt to blow up the election headquarters failed.

The chief of the largest local monitoring group, Transition Monitoring Group, said that a winner could not be announced on the basis of the poll conducted.

President Olusegun Obasanjo said that despite flaws, the elections could achieve a peaceful and democratic transfer of power. Such a result would be the first time power changes from one civilian administration to another since Nigeria's independence in 1960.

Opposition leader Muhammadu Buhari said he would call his supporters on to the streets if the ruling People's Democratic Party's candidate to succeed Obasanjo, Umaru Yar'Adua, is announced the winner.

The Nigerian supreme court ordered that Vice-President Atiku Abubakar's name be included in the ballot five days before elections, contributing to logistical difficulties.

Early results are showing a victory for Yar'Adua.

Twelve killed in attack on Iraqi police station
Two suicide car bombers attacked a police station in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq. The first sped through a checkpoint and blew up in front of the station; the second was detonated at the checkpoint.

Sunday's bombings in the mostly Shi'ite al-Bayaa neighborhood in the southwest of the city killed 12 and wounded 95, police said. Reversing an earlier statement, police said most of the dead were civilians.

Police said the explosions had destroyed several police vehicles and damaged the station. Reuters published pictures showing the entire facade of the building collapsed and said that a garage next door was mostly destroyed.

Ex-PMs of Bangladesh: Hasina not returning, Zia going into exile
Former Prime Minister of Bangladesh Sheikh Hasina has been prevented from boarding a flight to her home country by British Airways. The airline received a letter from Bangladeshi authorities warning it not to carry her or else the plane would not be allowed to land. Hasina faces charges of murder and extortion if she does manage to return.

Meanwhile, fellow former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia, who had been fighting to stay in the country to face any charges that might result from a recent crackdown on corruption, has now given in to pressure from the government to go into exile. She is said to be going to Saudi Arabia as soon as visas have been issued.

Hasina and Zia are bitter rivals and had been considered the top candidates in January elections that were called off. International observers have blamed many of the problems facing Bangladesh on the two former prime ministers.

Talk:Sarkozy and Royal go ahead to second round

Table hidden
This article has a table by Booksworm. However, it is quite messy and contains no information that cannot be found in the article already, but rather than delete it I chose to hide it so I could go ahead and publish this breaking story. Feel free to fix the table. I don't know how. --SVTCobra 21:13, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Football: Cristiano Ronaldo takes home both PFA awards

April 22, 2007

The Barclays Premiership gala awards dinner took place Sunday, with Manchester United being the winningest of clubs in the awards. The Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) presents awards to players every year who have been voted on by their peers as the best player of the season.

The front runner for the senior PFA award has been United midfielder Cristiano Ronaldo, and players agreed as he was the top vote recipient. Didier Drogba finished second following his 31 goals for Chelsea. Third place fell to Ronaldo's fellow Red Devil Paul Scholes, who has helped lead United only one year after a serious eye injury which could have ended his career. Others in the running for the award were Cesc Fabregas of Arsenal, Ryan Giggs of Manchester United, and Steven Gerrard of Liverpool, who won the award last season.

In the young player PFA award Ronaldo again prevailed, as the 22 year old became only the second player in history to earn both awards in one year, the first being Andy Gray in 1977. Cesc Fabregas came second, while Aaron Lennon of Tottenham finished in third. Wayne Rooney, who won the award the previous two years, was nominated as well along with Micah Richards of Manchester City and Kevin Doyle of Reading.

The Premiership team of the year was also announced, with eight Manchester United players being named. Keeper Edwin Van Der Sar along with the entire back line all play for United. The back line is made up of Gary Neville at right back, Patrice Evra on the left, with Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic as central defenders. Ronaldo was also on the team at right wing, with fellow PFA candidate Ryan Giggs on the left. The central midfielders where named as Paul Scholes and Steven Gerrard. Didier Drogba was named in the team as striker, along with Tottenham's Dimitar Berbatov, who has impressed greatly in his first year in the Premiership.

The special merit award was also directed to Manchester United, as manager Sir Alex Ferguson picked up the award.

Upon winning the double, Ronaldo exclaimed that "It is a special night. It is amazing and a big honour for me to win trophies like this in the English Premier League. I am very proud." And continued "My colleagues have voted for me and that is fantastic because the players know the qualities of players."

Manager Sir Alex Ferguson also commented on Ronaldo, saying "At this moment in time, I think he is the best player in the world and his season has been incredible."

Football: Internazionale clinch Serie A title

April 22, 2007

A 2-1 victory over Siena and a loss by Roma allowed Internazionale to uncork the champagne as they clinched the Serie A title for the first time since 1988-89. Inter were awarded the Scudetto last year after Juventus was stripped of the award due to the match fixing scandal, though this year they have won it on the pitch. Inter could have secured the title last week when they took on Roma at the San Siro, but Roma killed their record dreams with a 3-1 win.

Inter scored first against Siena on Sunday through defender Marco Materazzi, but Siena levelled minutes later through Paolo Negro. A penalty in the 60th minute was then awarded to Inter, and Materazzi dispatched the ball home to earn them the three points.

Meanwhile at the Stadio Azzurri D`Italia, Atalanta hosted Roma, as the Nerazzurri attempted to prolong Inter's celebrations. Atalanta shook Roma with two first half goals by Cristiano Doni and Riccardo Zampagna. A goal midway through the second half by Simone Perrotta pulled Roma within one, but they could not produce a comeback as frustration boiled over for defender Matteo Ferrari, who was red carded for a cynical challenge.

After securing the title, Inter revealed a contract extension for manager Roberto Mancini. The deal is for four years with an option to extend for another 12 months. Speculation has arose as of late about a replacement, but Mancini's title wining season earned him the stay.

Earthquake in Chile triggers landslide

April 23, 2007

At least 3 people have been killed and 7 others are missing after a 6.2 magnitude earthquake set off landslides in a fjord in Southern Chile, creating massive waves that swept people off the beach to sea. According to the United States Geological Survey or USGS, the epicenter was located 55 kilometers [35 miles] northwest of Coihaique, Chile in the village of Aisen and had a depth of 27 kilometers [16.8 miles] and the quake occurred at 17:53 (UTC) on Saturday.

Initial reports from Chile's government said that there were no signs of deaths, injuries or damage.

Later, it emerged that at least 10 people on a nearby beach were swept away by the 25-foot waves. The waves were not a tsunami wave, according to volcanologist Juan Cayupi, but were created by the debris of the landslide falling into the waters in the narrow fjord.

Rescuers have recovered only three bodies. According to the Chilean Emergency Bureau, the bodies have been identified as; Ernesto Contreras, 65, Elsa Poblete, 54, his wife and Genaro Linay, 2, their grandson.

No tsunami warning was issued following the earthquake.

Several boats were damaged by the waves generated by the landslide, but there was no report of structural damage to any buildings.

Tsunami
Maybe not the right word...but WP definition of tsunami: Earthquakes, mass movements above or below water, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions, landslides, large meteorite impacts and testing with nuclear weapons at sea all have the potential to generate a tsunami.

Iran: no sign of former FBI agent
In the article, Iran: no sign of former FBI agent, did you really use all those sources? Keep in mind the sources section should contain only what is used in the article. It is not supposed to be used as a for further reading section.--SVTCobra 12:59, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

I noticed you added new content to the article, Iran's morality police crack down on un-Islamic dress, which is more than 24 hours old. Thanks for taking an active role in improving the content on this site. People like you who take an active role make Wikinews better for all of us — readers and writers alike.

One thing to note, though, is that Wikinews articles are not works in progress. Articles are considered historical documents reflecting the knowledge and understanding of the event at the time of publishing. Once published for more than a day or so, they should not be continually updated or modified, except to fix minor style issues (eg. spelling mistakes).

To report on new developments in ongoing story, you can create a new article instead of just adding content to an already published, out of date article. That way your work will be seen by more people since readers tend not to revisit old news articles looking for updates.

If a published article contains a factual error, please bring it to our attention at WN:ALERT, so that a Correction notice can be added to the article, which is otherwise left unchanged.

Again, thanks for helping improve this site.–Doldrums(talk) 07:54, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Rockvee. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Rockvee~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Nismo. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Nismo~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Our key policies - if you read anything, read these! Here a few pointers to help you get to know Wikinews: There are always things to do on Wikinews: By the way, you can sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes ( ~~~~ ), which produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, you can ask them at the water cooler or to anyone on the Welcommittee, or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! DragonFire1024 07:16, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Kieslar. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Kieslar~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:17, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
