But, of course, you won't do that, will you?! Having       said that, I watched the above video, and it has nothing to do with       Wikipedia!! In fact, here is the Wikipedia article on Jimmy Wales:              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Wales              Let me cite the relevant text for you (which is in the first paragraph):              Jimmy Donal "Jimbo" Wales (born August 7, 1966)[1] is an American       Internet entrepreneur and former financial trader. Most notably, he       ***CO-FOUNDED*** Wikipedia, a nonprofit free encyclopedia, and Fandom       (formerly Wikia), a for-profit wiki hosting service. He has also worked       on Bomis, Nupedia, WikiTribune, and Trust CafĂ© (formerly WT Social).              (***EMPHASIS MINE***)              Dawn              P.S.
