User:Jimbo Wales/WikiProject Wikipedians who frankly don't care about Jimbo's beard

WikiProject Wikipedians who frankly don't care about Jimbo's beard was started on August 20, 2005 to coordinate efforts of Wikipedians who really don't care about efforts to either promote or discourage facial hair on Jimbo's face. After all, it's his face, and his hair, and as long as he keeps contributing to Wikipedia, we couldn't care less.

Anyone who is interested in contributing, please sign up below and post any ideas and suggestions on the Talk page. Also, feel free to edit this page and add any events of our two rival groups, the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikipedians against Jimbo's beard and Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikipedians for Jimbo's beard that need attention to the open tasks section below (i.e. any events that need to be slapped with a "DON'T CARE" tag). The notice beard is to inform project members of current Wikipedia events which warrant their attention with regards to this project.

 * 12) --Alien joe 18:56, 25 July 2007 (UTC) If he shaves his beard, he should also shave his head!
 * 13) His moustache, however, would be a different matter. Radiant_ &gt;|&lt;  10:18, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
 * 14) The outcome will be no-consensus which will default to keep, so why bother? -Splash 23:30, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
 * 15) AdamRock The universe should not be wasting this much energy on such a subject.
 * 16) The Fascist Chicken I don't really care about the beard, it can stay it can go, and because I don't care about his beard, he can't blame me for the outcome.
 * 17) Er... yes. IvanP 18:01, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

 * 23) Aaron Jethro (disagree here) I'm so apathetic that it took me a while to convince myself to join. I will never care about the man's beard until he starts displaying 2 fake eyes in his mouth and tries to convince us that the remaining hair on his head is in fact his facial hair. 16:03, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * 24) Perhaps he could start "Wikibeardia", where users can change his beard at will. Not that I care. smurray   inch   e  ster  (User), (Talk) 11:32, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
 * 25) I'm not gonna bother stating what I think. ☺  AP  clark   Be nice not nasty  20:36, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
 * 26) I think that Jimbo's beard has grown to large an entry and should be separated into the entries Jimbo's beard, Jimbo's moustache, and Jimbo's sideburns.  This is really neither a keep nor a delete, but somewhere in the middle, so I think I belong here.  Of course, only Jimbo can implement this change, so we need to urge Jimbo to be bold! -  Che Nuevara: Join the Revolution 23:49, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * 27) It's not his beard that needs to be shaved, it's his eyebrows. --– sampi ( talk • contrib • email ) 05:04, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
 * 28) Who cares if he has a beard? I sure hope this whole thing is a joke. I actually sort of want a beard myself... Darth Katana X 00:41, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

 * 33) We're trying to build an encyclopedia here.  We don't have time to worry about people's beards, even though he is The Creator (of Wikipedia that is, I'm not saying that Jimbo created the world or anything).  --l E oN2323 22:48, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

 * 37) Well, it is his face, and this is an encyclopedia, not a beard fourm. I'd be more interested in editing. This is humour, after all. I saw this in the WP:MOTD. Now let's edit other things. It's as if this whole thng is "to beard or not to beard, that is the question". I noticed a lot of wikipedians I've seen around here has their name here. A beard is not a mane. Whatever, bye.

Notice beard
This notice beard is intended to inform members of the project of votes or other current Wikipedia events which warrant their attention with regards to this project. Please do not list articles in need of attention here, but rather ideas on how we should be more apathetic about Jimbo's hair. Please remove notices when the event is no longer current.

Soulpatch proposal
I might care alittle bit if Jimbo goes with the 50's be-bop soulpatch look. This would reinforce his hipness and depth of soul, and would tickle just a bit if he kissed you. I don't see a downside. If we can make this happen, I for one would care just a tiny bit about his beard. Hamster Sandwich
 * I also would care just a tiny bit. I hate soulpatches. But it's Jimbo's face, he can do what he wants with it. FreplySpang (talk) 18:43, August 21, 2005 (UTC)
 * I have reconsidered my proposal. I just don't care enough to care. Not even if he started wearing berets. Apathetically yours, Hamster Sandwich


 * No, that'd be awful!


 * ...Because then I'd be jealous! Darth Katana X 03:36, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Headshaving proposal
Maybe if we get him to shave his beard, we also might get him to also shave his head. Maybe it would work with the soulpatch. --Alien joe 19:03, 25 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Next thing you will want to do is mow his lawn. This is going to far and must be stopped by executive order. I know POTUS is watching this discussion. 03:39, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

Distraction proposal
Perhaps if we start a different Jimbo controversy, Wikipedians will stop arguing about the beard long enough to forget they had an opinion. For instance, we could start a "Jimbo should wear glasses" WikiProject, or, if we wanted to get away from talking about his face altogether, start a "JimBo should be internally capitalized" controversy.
