Note that there are two questions in this poll. One about critics of Wikipedia, and the other about critics of the Wikimedia Foundation.

Note that "foremost" could be described as the "most famous person" who criticizes Wikipedia or the Wikimedia Foundation. Or, "foremost" could be described as the "most dedicated critic", regardless of fame. Or, it could easily be described as the "most effective or influential critic". How you choose is up to you.

The voting will remain open until the end of Sunday, April 3, 2001.

Or there are a lot of people studiously researching all available media and historical databases because someone - perhaps absentmindedly, if we are to be generous - required people to name the World's (is that a proper noun, and if so what constitutes "the World"?) foremost WP & WMF critics... It is a tall order. It may have been easier if the question was posed as, "who out of the following individuals, who have been referenced within these pages recently, do you believe are the foremost WP & WMF critic", but instead we must determine who is and note accordingly.

I can't be bothered, and am pretty certain that I am on ignore on a lot of peoples options, but I may have opined a vote for... Kelly; but only because it might wind her up (and I think she was rude to me, once, long ago, about something.) However, since it is not about simple belief and preference my opinion must remain unknown.
