I donated $15 and got an invitation to add Wikipedia to my will
That’s an ad
which showed up right after i clicked submit on the donation
Yeah, scummy
I’ll just leave this right here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Guy_Macon/Wikipedia_has_Cancer
I used to donate but have since switched to other more needing causes.
IMHO, with all its problems, Wikipedia is still (one of) the best achievement of mankind
I agree, I love Wikipedia! If they’re ever actually in need of money and not just trying to grow for growth’s sake I’ll pitch in.
Yes, it’s just that money in particular is not very useful for them right now
If you feel that Wiki has savings and therefore doesn’t need your money today, that’s fine.
But other than that WTF is this nonsense? None of it follows. Says Wiki keeps increasing spending while not noting the obvious - that its savings are growing too. Worse, without noting that a big chunk of the expenses are going towards savings. From the report below, out of the 111M spent, 51M went to savings. His expenditure graph includes savings yet he thinks that’s all spending. 😄
Anyone curious what Wiki spends on: https://wikimediafoundation.org/who-we-are/annualreport/2021-annual-report/financials/#section-2.
I donated to archive.org too, i think there solid things to save
I donated 3.10 to cover the cost of using a card personally.
Donated to Wikipedia before and once we have an income again we’ll be donating again since we use it quite a lot
Im just going to leave this here
