Seems to be notable for only one thing: getting blocked by Wikipedia. The coverage exists entirely from 2006-2007, when this whole event went down. The book cited, The Future of the Internet--And How to Stop It, is available on Google Books. I checked the book's footnotes for their passage on MyWikiBiz, and all of them just trace back to Wikipedia pages (e.g. Jimmy Wales' talk page, the MyWikiBiz talk page), thus meaning that the book is a circular reference. I found a few articles about the founder that say "as the founder of MyWikiBiz, blah blah blah" on news outlets, but nothing whatsoever after 2007.
