Disclosure, and the Ethics of Funding Non-profit journalism
Hey, after discussion with WMF folks, and more, I figured I should disclose the following, in respect.
In addition to founding craigslist, I've been focused on philanthropy via craigconnects.org, specifically supporting nonprofit journalism, which I feel includes Wikipedia. I just posted regarding the ethics of funding nonprofit journalism, and thought this would be relevant here.
Further, given my heavy Wikipedia existing and future grants, I've decided I need to disclose everything I do that's related, limited only by the do no harm principle. That is, I'll be subjecting everything I do re Wikipedia to public scrutiny, and this is the start of that.
