NoteThe source directly confirms that William MacAskill is listed as a founder of 80,000 Hours. The Wikidata page shows 'founded by' with two entries: William MacAskill and Benjamin J. Todd. The claim states MacAskill is 'the Founder' (singular), which is technically incomplete since there were co-founders, but the claim is not contradicted—MacAskill is indeed confirmed as a founder. This is a 'partial' situation (incomplete listing of all founders) but the specific claim about MacAskill being a founder is accurate and confirmed by the source.
