Welcome!
Jimmy Wales's voice Recorded August 2014Problems playing this file? See media help.
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, which Larry Sanger and I founded on June 20, 2003. In 2004, I co-founded Wikia with Angela Beesley, a completely separate organization unrelated to Misplaced Pages and the Wikimedia Foundation. 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 anything that requires a div tag, style, or template), but the thing is, I trust you. Yes, really, I do! I trust that you will add something here that makes me really smile or that informs me or many others. 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 3,400 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 (apart from bad faith alterations and vandalism) anyone is welcome to edit! Misplaced Pages can always use more help; it is, after all, a permanent work in progress.
Comments or questions about how this page currently looks should be kept on my talk page, rather than on this page.
