As far as I know, all channels starting with #wikipedia- and #wikimedia- are official as agreed with freenode, and if it were needed, http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_Group_Contacts could take control over them

So James and Sean are independent autocrats of unlimited power over the Wikimedia domain. Good thing they're sane, really.
Also http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_channels specifies which channels forbid logging, which ones may be logged and which are open
