[Wikimedia-l] Disclosure and the ethics of funding non-profit journalism

2016-07-16 Thread Craig Newmark
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.
