Because of my work on The Wikipedia Signpost, somebody once playfully suggested that I should be in charge of "Wikipedia: The Movie". I don't anticipate this happening any time soon, as it would take a lot more skills than mine to pull off. But since it's awards season for the film industry, I thought I'd offer for your enjoyment part of the lineup I would pick to star in this film.
Jimmy Wales - [[Paul Giamatti]] Angela Beesley - [[Kristin Scott Thomas]] Florence Devouard - [[Carole Bouquet]] Larry Sanger - [[Colin Firth]] John Seigenthaler - [[Jon Voight]] Brion Vibber - [[Martin Freeman]] Daniel Mayer - [[Philip Seymour Hoffman]] Andrew Lih - [[Chow Yun-Fat]] Danny Wool - [[Geoffrey Rush]] Delphine Ménard - [[Charlotte Gainsbourg]] Tim Starling - [[Heath Ledger]] Elisabeth Bauer - [[Alexandra Maria Lara]] Erik Möller - [[Sean Bean]] Jean-Baptiste Soufron - [[Olivier Martinez]] David Gerard - [[Pete Postlethwaite]]
Brackets indicate that you can look all of these actors up, at least on en:, though pictures are not necessarily available there. Lest any of the subjects be offended by my choices, I'm not necessarily saying you look like these people. My focus was on picking capable actors who could be made to look more or less like you. This is for entertainment value only.
However, I'm happy to entertain ideas for suggested replacements and additional members of the cast. But keep in mind that the only way to ensure you will be played by the actor of your choice is to foot the bill for that actor's salary.

Well I suppose it would then be the first film released under GFDL ... ???

I know the title sucks, that's what the "move" facility is for :-)
HTH HAND
I must say.... Carole Bouquet looks quite as a compliment to me :-) (especially right now, where I feel I look like a balloon while she is a previous James Bond girl...
Thanks :-)
