The corporate structure of Wikimedia Foundation is composed of five trustees according to [[Wikimedia Foundation bylaws]], article IV.
 
Line 15 ⟶ 17:
The Board is also empowered to set up committees to delegate its powers (art. 4 sec. 3). There is currently a proposal for individual [[Wikimedia Project Governing Committees]] that delegate the issues relating to issues such as policy and member disputes on each individual Wikimedia project.

Tim Shell is a founding partner of [[w:en:Bomis]]. He lives in the [[Mojave Desert]] but he can't stand the sun. He claims to have had an important role in the creation of Wikipedia, but has no way of proving this.
 
He likes [[Epicurus]], [[Ayn Rand]], [[Eric Hoffer]], [[Julian Simon]], and [[Friedrich Hayek]] and thinks [[Mark Twain]] wrote better English than just about anyone else.
Line 31 ⟶ 38:
''I think [[socialism]] and [[creationism]] are in essence the same theory (centrally planned order imposed on the system by a higher authority that exists outside the system). Both theories are equally absurd. I think evolutionists who see spontaneous order in complex natural systems, while advocating central planning in complex human systems, have zero intellectual integrity.''<br>
''I believe in every god I've ever seen.''
