Wales's new title[edit]

Jimmy Wales new title should be mentioned in the article as the board has been reorganized. --Chiacomo (talk) 06:02, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

he is still working there whatever "title" --Thegenius 06:05, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed he is, but since he is still working there, it is important to identify his title -- the capacity in which he's working. --Chiacomo (talk) 06:06, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

however the suggested name is not a capacity.--Thegenius 06:07, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What's the problem with identifying his title -- his role on the Board of Directors? Would you like to incorporate the title somewhere else in the article? --Chiacomo (talk) 06:09, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, he is the founder and works still there, both is in the article.--Thegenius 06:11, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mmm. I don't understand. I think it's important to note his new title -- it explains his continuing association with the Board of Directors, particularly, and the Foundation generally (in addition to his being the "founder"). There's no point in arguing the point, but more information seldom hurts, and in this case, identifying Wales's title would clarify things a bit, I think. --Chiacomo (talk) 06:14, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
