Too bad Jimmy Wales isn't the "founder" of Wikipedia. Dr. Larry Sanger came to Wales, pushing for installation of a wiki architecture on the encyclopedia paradigm; Sanger named it "Wikipedia"; and Sanger issued the first public call for participation. Wales took about 30 minutes to install some wiki freeware on a server that his partnership company owned. If anyone was "founder" of Wikipedia, it would be Sanger.
