Arnnon Geshuri
Hello Jayen466,

Was the WMF board fully aware of Arnnon Geshuri's central role in a major anticompetitive scandal at Google when they approved his appointment to the board? In 2010, the Justice Department shut down the illegal collusion between Google and five other Silicon Valley corporations. Geshuri helped manage that collusion for Google. A class action lawsuit settled in September, 2015 forced those companies to pay $415 million in compensation to 64,000 employees whose careers were damaged by the conspiracy that Geshuri was part of. Geshuri was directly involved in the ugly and humiliating termination of a woman who did not comply with the illegal scheme. He was chastised by federal judge Lucy Koh for attempting to pull Facebook into the conspiracy, and threatening retaliation if they didn't. Details can be found at User:Cullen328/Arnnon Geshuri. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  07:24, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I would suggest that falls under due diligence. Potential Signpost op-ed? Andreas JN 466 13:08, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

Would you say this guy is notable?
Hi Andreas, the bio of the current Sheikh of the Naqshbandia Owaisiah, Ameer Muhammad Akram Awan is up for deletion for lack of notability: See AfD. Any quick ideas? Regards,  Esowteric + Talk  15:22, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I can't find an awful lot, to be honest. (Maybe there is more in Urdu?) There's nothing I can add to what people have said at the AfD. Best, --Andreas JN 466 14:38, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks anyway, Andreas. And happy new year!  Esowteric + Talk  16:27, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
 * And the same to you! Best, --Andreas JN 466 16:28, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Psst

#1lib1ref Coverage
Hey Jayen, I added a link to Wikipedia Signpost/2016-01-20/In the media about coverage of #1lib1ref: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref/Press. I don't want to write the summary because of my obvious conflict of interest. Sadads (talk) 15:24, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Sadads. --Andreas JN 466 21:54, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
