Welcome!

Hello! My name is Jimmy Wales, and this is my user page. I go by "Jimmy" in real life, but often by "Jimbo" online. People sometimes assume that "Jimmy" is only a nickname for "James", but it's actually my full first name.

I was born on August 7, 1966, in Huntsville, Alabama. I founded Misplaced Pages on January 15, 2001. Since 2006, I have been the Chair Emeritus of the Wikimedia Foundation, set up by Larry Sanger and me on June 20, 2003. In 2004, Angela Beesley and I established Wikia (now Fandom), a completely separate organization unrelated to Misplaced Pages and the Wikimedia Foundation. Another independent project I am working on is WikiTribune, a collaborative news website. I am proud of founding Misplaced Pages, and I am grateful for what it has offered to millions of people worldwide.

You can edit this page!

Really, you can! If you would like to, please feel free to do so. Make an edit – or even several! After all, that's what Misplaced Pages is all about!

I like to keep it a certain way (simple and free from complicated markup, styles, or excessive templates), but the thing is, I trust you. Yes, really, I do! I trust that you will add something here that would make me really smile, inform me or many other individuals. But please, do not vandalize because it won't make the world any better, and you know that too, so please don't. Thank you for keeping Misplaced Pages clean.

(Over) 3,600 Wikipedians monitor my user and user talk page via a watchlist, and I trust them to edit and remove errors or attacks. This is a wiki, so anyone is welcome to edit! Misplaced Pages can always use more help; it is, after all, a permanent work in progress. While vandalism is not appreciated and is sure to be promptly fixed, there is plenty of time to become a better editor who only contributes for the good of platform!

Comments or questions about how this page currently looks should be kept on my talk page, rather than on this page. Also, if you don't feel bold enough to edit this page directly, or don't know whether the edit is helpful and legal, you can propose changes there instead.

You are welcome to make test edits in your own sandbox if you are logged in or the public sandbox if not logged in. Help us build the most comprehensive source of information on the Internet!

For inquiries about my personal views on some general topic, contact my assistant, Samantha, at presswikia.com. She knows how to find me as quickly as possible.

• Complaints: If you have a complaint, it's best to start with the help desk. Ask a short, friendly question, and fellow Wikipedians will be happy to help. Contacting me directly with a complaint should be reserved for after you have exhausted all other possible remedies (see Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution).
  If you have a complaint about article content, there are many avenues to pursue. The best and simplest way is to just fix it. You can also open a discussion on the article's talk page about the issues you wish to address.
