If people think that way Jimbo you only have yourself and those surrounding
you to blame. Whenever I have dared to point out any Wikipedia shortcoming
on the site I have been attacked by those closest to you immediately. Is it
any wonder people now think the worst and go elsewhere with their
criticisms.

Believe me, we are all taking a very hard look at everything.
My point is not to blame you or to go into accusations or complaints of
any kind.
Here is what I am saying to the entire community:
I am one of you. I am here to work in my best efforts for the benefit
of Wikipedia, for the benefit of our shared goal...
As I have said for years: "Imagine a world in which every single person
on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge.
That's what we're doing."
That's what we're doing. You, me, all of us.
If you ever hear of anything like this again, please do not make the
"bad faith" assumption that it is being "hushed up". Assume that I
would be outraged if I knew, and come and tell me.
I would really really appreciate it.
