The overall picture I'm getting is this:
- Jimbo is a board member on the Wikimedia foundation and one of its
official spokespersons. 2) Jimbo retains one or more extraordinary powers on the English Wikipedia to do with arbitration. (if ArbCom is not confined to en, my apologies) 3) Jimbo retains an unofficial role as community leader and spokesman on the English Wikipedia. His pronouncements and directions are followed, if at all, because of trust, respect, his previous role as GodKing, and perhaps due to community misunderstanding of his role.
What else am I missing?
There's only one other thing that I can think of. See WP:OFFICE. He is one of two people on the English Wikipedia empowered to perform unrevertable office actions.
