Can someone help me! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.71.25.173 (talk • contribs) 05:03, 14 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone please delink this page from the front page? This is positioned as an introduction but this quote was not meant for the job. Jimbo covered a number of issues including speaking about "the case of proprietary file formats...". It's also dry and unpolished. lots of issues | leave me a message 12:52, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Can you bring that up at Talk:Main Page where people are more likely to see it? In the meantime I'm protecting the page because the only edits for a while have been vandalism. -- Francs2000 | Talk

This page is probably ripe for WP:TRYUNPROT (protecting admin is retired and hasn't edited in 17 yrs), but please replace :''A statement from [[Jimmy Wales|Jimmy "Jimbo" Wales]], co-founder of Wikipedia.'' with proper hatnote syntax ({{hatnote|A statement from [[Jimmy Wales|Jimmy "Jimbo" Wales]], co-founder of Wikipedia.}}) and add {{pp-vandalism|small=yes}} to the top of the page.

Reduced protection to extendedconfirmed. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 03:24, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think another WP:TRYUNPROT can be done here, this time removing protection entirely, finally freeing the page about free encyclopedia. There is no indication of any vandalism, and vandalism can be reverted easily anyway. This statement was written by Jimbo Wales, but this is not WP:PG, and not even a commonly cited essay, all of which often have little to no protection.
