Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Diaspora (social network)‎, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

I have no idea how to reach AHunt; however, I have been unsuccessful in getting changes to Diaspora Social Media wiki page. Whoever wrote the original info was incorrect, Diaspora is NOT a non-profit... their own blog out this week identifies them as c corporation..I have made changes and put in reference links.... however, AHunt keeps putting the information that Diaspora is a non-profit. Here is the blog: http://blog.diasporafoundation.org/ see item 2; lines 2 & d:

"2) Expand our team and community. Currently Diaspora* Inc. consists of Daniel and Maxwell as full-time team members, plus Raphael and our former NYU advisor Evan Korth on our board. We are incorporated as a for-profit C corporation,"

They are also not a Foundation..they use 'foundation' in webpage, and I know for fact this is going to be changed... however whoever wrote the original diaspora info writes foundation.

The info on Wiki is misleading and incorrect, please make changes.

Thank you.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Diaspora (social network). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Ahunt (talk) 21:49, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

This is in reply to the edits A Hunt continues to ignore or changes.... your comments about my edits being vandalism are plain silly...what you did was mess up the information, now I see why people don't rely on Wiki. Specifically, there is one, and only one legal company, Diaspora, Inc. also called Diaspora-- that is not an opinion, it is a legal fact. This one company, Diaspora Inc. (Diaspora) is legally incorporated a C corporation--look it up, C corporations are by definition for-profit, as noted in the blog from the Diaspora home page which you were given reference. A company cannot be both for profit and non-profit yet while you added the section on for profit C corp, you left in the introduction sentence that Diaspora is a non-profit. Yet there is no reference, no verification, anywhere that Diaspora Inc. (Diaspora) is a non-profit, you simply left that in. The fact that the software is open source and many people contribute to it, including the Disapora people, has nothing to do with the legal structure of the company called Diaspora, Inc. (Diaspora). Additionally, you changed the comments about Ilya from died/passed away to 'suicide'-- at same time you left the 3 links to reports of his death-- read them, not all report suicide, and the one that does is giving opinion as noted in the article, not medical fact which has to be established by San Fran police medical department. Read your own references. At same time, I can't understand why you feel it necessary to report means of death...do you report all reasons for death in Wiki..cancer, car accident, etc. Bottom line, I give up--keep whatever garbage was originally put in about Diaspora by unknown individuals., change info even when references/footnotes don't support your edits.... keep misinformation and then make baseless comments of vandalism regarding my edits... every point I made is backed by published facts.. but guess that does not matter. I'm done with Wiki.

By the way...you put back section that the social network is not owned by anyone...wrong again! the software is not owned by anyone...however the social network Diaspora Inc. (Diaspora) is a corporation with stock and is owned by individuals. You continue to confuse a company's legal standing with open source software.
