They all look rather young, especially Tomsen.
I dunno, those look like interns to me, not salaried workers. And they are awfully young. Not one of them lists any other work experience, nor do they list things like degrees etc.
I confirmed on the Wikia Help IRC channel -- they are paid for their services to the Wikia Community.
C'mon, do you think I'd just spit out "paid Community Team" without having done some research to back it up?
Don't miss the big point, though. Six out of the nine state their involvement with a Wikimedia Foundation project or two. Two do not. And the ninth is Angela Beesley herself, former Board member of Wikimedia Foundation and still Advisory Committee chair.
But, we're told they are COMPLETELY SEPARATE organizations, and two consecutive WMF Form 990's told the government there was "nothing to see here" regarding business relationships between the 60% of the Board who were all paid by Wikia, Inc.
