:While this wasn't ''[[w:Interview with the Vampire|Interview with the Vampire]]'', getting a live interview with [[w:Jimmy Wales|Jimmy Wales]] of the [[w:en:Wikimedia Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] is requiring more work and planning than ever. Four contributors to four different Wikinews language editions (with [[:sv:Intervju_med_Jimmy_Wales|Swedish]], [[:nl:Interview met Jimbo Wales op 5 december 2005|Netherlands]], and [[:pl:Człowiek stojący za Wikipedią - wywiad z Jimbo Walesem, prezesem Fundacji Wikimedia|Polish]]) arranged to interview "Jimbo" in the Wikinews IRC channel, squeezed in before interviews with a periodical and a cable news source.

 

 

;ウィキニュース、あるいは他のウィキプロジェクトのどれでも、には、能力主義が適当であると信じていますか？

:; Do you believe that Wikinews, or any of the Wiki projects qualify as a [[w:meritocracy|meritocracy]]?

:: I hope so. :-) Although the wiki process sometimes strikes people as being inherently favoring egalitarianism or anarchy, there is a certain sense in which the wiki editing tool is neutral to social structures. As a matter of simple description, it does turn out that users who do quality work end up having a lot more power than users who do bad work. So in that sense, yes, it is a meritocracy, but an informal one.

 

:; "Current Events" is not "encyclopedic" enough to reside on Wikipedia! On many Wikipedia projects content have been moved to Wikibooks and Wikisource, shouldn't "Current Events" be transfered to Wikinews in the same way?

:: I have no very strong opinion about this. Encyclopedia articles about current events are in many ways different from news articles about current events. I suspect we should have some parallel work going on, and Wikinews should be more prominently featured in this way on the Wikipedia homepage. But that's a big internal community discussion that other people know more about than I do.

 

;今回のファンド・ドライブは目標金額がありませんね。100万米ドルに始まってそれからさらに目標があがっていく、未発表の予算案があるとの噂があります。このドライブでウィキメディア財団はいくら寄付を集める必要があるのでしょう。

:我々に定められた目標は自由なライセンスをされた高品質の百科事典を、地球上の誰しもに彼らの言語で作成し配布することです。

:我々はこの目標がある分野では非常にうまく達せられて、それ以外ではそうでもないことを知っています。

 

; ファンドレイザーはウィキメディア財団の唯一の財源ではありません。ほかの収入源、交付金や契約金などを今どれ程財団は得ているんでしょうか。またそれはどのような用途で使われているのでしょうか。

: ダニー・ウール (Danny Wool) は最近財団に入りまして、事務所での私の秘書となっています。ただ、ほとんどの時間は交付金申請の事務をしていますね。代わりになる秘書を養成したら交付金申請を専門にやってもらう計画です。

:; Fundraisers are not the only source of funding for Wikimedia Foundation. What other revenue streams, such as grants and contracts, does the Foundation currently have? What others are being applied for or worked on?

 

;どんな企業が即座のデータ配信の費用をまかなっているのでしょうか。

:;What companies are paying realtime data streams?

:: [JWales] Answers.com for example.

 

; ダニー・ウールのように何人か雇い入れることを仰っていますね。使用時間の増加による予算の増加に対するご予定は。

: 今の時点で確実にいえることは、財団の仕事は大変多いということです。

:; You've mentioned hiring some new employees, like Danny Wool. What's the projection for increasing the budget for employee time?

:As the interview progressed, with more and more observers, we got to that point where we really wanted to dig deeper into certain aspects of answers to our questions, but were short on time. Then it turned into a classic press conference, with interviewers tossing out questions rapid fire and Mr. Wales answering quickly and briefly to as many as he could... with all of us wishing we had more time to get more details and explanations.

 

:; Today on en.wikipedia the ability to create new pages has been turned off for anonymous users. Is The Wikimedia Foundation slowly turning away from the original wiki principles?

:: [JWales] I don't view minor tweaks here and there to our model as either turning towards or away from wiki principles.

 

:; The mainland People's Republic of China has blocked WP, and today Onet.pl has removed WP from their search engine. Will changes in accessibility harm the fund drive?

:: [JWales] We don't traditionally get much money from Mainland China, and I doubt if the Polish search engine example will hurt the traffic of pl.wikipedia very much. (It will probably hurt the search engine more!)

 

; 私は主にスウェーデン語版のプロジェクトに参加しています。あなたはスウェーデン語がおできにならない、だものであなたが非英語版のプロジェクトを御覧になったことがあるのか疑っているんです。そもそも私たちの存在を御存知ですか？

:; I'm a contributor mostly on the Swedish projects. You don't speak Swedish, so I'm wondering if you ever look at non-English projects? Do you even notice us?

:: [JWales] :)

:: What I do to try to be useful to other languages is communicate with people as much as I can, visit people in person as much as I can, and monitor the statistics pages to see what is going on.
