It's kind of surprising that you could just open up a site and let people work.

I don't come down on any simple place as a deletionist or a completionist.

In general, the best advice I can give people is to take criticism seriously, apologize for anything you have done wrong, and pull back from conflict. Of course, if you are right on a content matter, you should press forward in the interest of quality, but conflict often has a way of taking on a life of its own, unfortunately.

I'm a very friendly person, and I think that's had a big impact on my work because I tend to be pretty good with not trying to always win every argument and things like that. I just sort of try to bring a lot of people together to talk.

I think people have to recognise that the traditional modes of authority weren't that great.

Freedom, liberty, individual rights, that idea of dealing with other people in a matter that is not initiating force against them, is critical to me.

My being some kind of celebrity - not a real celebrity, isn't a welcome part of the job.
