{{userboxtop|Languages}}
Hello! My name is [[Jimmy Wales]], and this is my [[Wikipedia:User pages|user page]]. I go by "Jimmy" in real life, but often by "Jimbo" online. People sometimes assume that "Jimmy" is only a [[nickname]] for "James", but it's actually my full first name.

I was born on August&nbsp;7, 1966, in [[Huntsville]], [[Alabama]]. I [[History of Wikipedia#Founding of Wikipedia|founded]] [[Wikipedia]] on January&nbsp;15, 2001. Since 2006, I have been the [[Chairman|Chair]] [[Emeritus]] of the [[Wikimedia Foundation]], set up by [[Larry Sanger]] and me on June&nbsp;20, 2003. In 2004, [[wmf:Former Board of Trustees members#Angela Beesley|Angela Beesley]] and I established [[Fandom (website)#2004–09: Early days and growth|Wikia]] (now [[Fandom (website)#2016–2018: Fandom brand|Fandom]]), a completely separate organization unrelated to Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Foundation. Another independent project I am working on is [[WikiTribune]], a collaborative news website. I am proud of having founded Wikipedia, and I am grateful for what it has offered to millions of people worldwide.

I like to keep it a certain way (simple and free from complicated [[Help:Wikitext|markup]], [[Cascading Style Sheets|styles]], or excessive [[Help:Template|templates]]), but the thing is, [[Wikipedia:Assume good faith|I trust you]]. Yes, really, I do! I trust that you will add something here that would make me really smile, inform many other individuals or me. But please, do not [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|vandalize]], because it won't make the world any better, and you know that too, so please don't. Thank you for helping to keep Wikipedia clean.

Hello, I'm '''Pythoncoder'''. I edit in a lot of areas, especially maintenance tasks like fixing typos, [[WP:RCP|patrolling Recent Changes]] and [[WP:NPP|New Pages]], and rejecting [[WP:WPAFC|AfC]] submissions with [[WP:SOLUTIONS|out-of-place chemistry terms]]. I also participate in [[WP:RfA|RfA]]s, [[WP:VPR|village pump proposals]], and [[WP:AFD|deletion discussions]] when I feel like it. Have a question about my edits or Wikipedia in general? Click the “Talk” button at the top of this page to leave me a message.
 
I also edit [https://community.wikia.com/wiki/User:Pythoncoder Wikia] and [http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/user:pythoncoder RationalWiki] under this same username, but I definitely do not have [https://en.uncyclopedia.co/wiki/User:Pythoncoder an account on Uncyclopedia]. I’m still waiting for TV Tropes to send me a confirmation email, but [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TVTropesWillRuinYourLife maybe that’s for the best]. I am not related to [[User:PythonCoder]], who last edited in 2012.
 
'''Disclosures:''' I have never edited for pay and I never will. I use a lot of user scripts and gadgets (and even develop a couple) so I made {{u|PythoncoderAlt}} as an [[WP:LEGITSOCK|alt account]] to test what "stock Wikipedia" looks like for new users.
 
==Articles I’ve created==
Most of my edits these days involve [[WP:NPP|new page patrol]] and other maintenance tasks, but I have created a few small articles:
*[[Reset style sheet]] — translated
*[[EAServer]] — also translated
*[[Gronkowski (horse)]]
*Numerous redirects and a disambiguation page
 
==Articles I’ve improved==
*[[Genieo]]: removed spammy content
*[[Zeobit]]: removed spammy content
*[[HTML element]]: added HTML5 elements
 
==Subpages==
*[[/test]]: Wikipediholism tests.
**[[/test/test]]: My custom version of the Wikipediholism test.
*[[/Gallery/Icons]]: A bunch of useful icons.
