It's his User page. He can put whatever he wants there, and this is certainly appropriate. Plus, he didn't deny the relationship -- he just said it isn't happening anymore.

That's weird. I tried to put a bit of useful information in my own User page, but Jimmy Wales banned me from the site, then put what HE wanted to say in MY User page. That's how it works on the ol' Wikipedia.

Gregory: Lol. You realize Jimmy Wales doesn't have direct control over all goings-on at wikipedia? You may be confusing him with santa claus.

Sir,
You speak of Wales as if he were a normal CEO or business leader. He's not. Or of Wikipedia as if it were a normal encyclopedia, or professionally run web reference site. It's not.
Those of us who have tracked the Walesian culture for a while aren't surprised at all. This is just business as usual. The only reason his financial dealings (shady) have come to light is that he dumped a famous woman online, and it turns out that he met his match, and she retaliated, and hilariously so. Just desserts of course, but where were all of you when he's been doing dirty deeds and defaming people (or allowing his minions to do so) for the past five years?

Please, Sir. It's a serious question.
Thanks,
