Have you donated to Wiki?

Wikipedia is just a parody of this

[AtW]

No and no - they removed SKA entry on Wikipedia some years ago!

Then a couple of years later Jimmy's emmissar asked me if I would consider open sourcing SKA and giving it all to them

I would never donate to an organisation like Wikipedia which claims to be transparent and independent, and yet has a proven history of protecting a hierarchy of insiders (some in the pay of secret service agencies) who use the site to get across their own biased point of view on controversial topics.

The Wikipedia Review -> General Discussion

Interesting, but that kind of thing is bound to go on with any publication IMO. Anything involving history, people, politics and world events are bound to be manipulated and biased. I assume that stuff is dubious from the start. I had more factual, cited content in mind.

Every time I see his face on the banner I want to poke him in the eye with my pen.

I'm not seeing any of those banners on Wiki.

Where's the "smug" icon?

[Spacecadet]

I expect I will carry on getting 'a personal appeal by an author' each time I bring up wiki page until such time I cough up. I think it's a wonderful resource, but am skint at the moment. Have any of you wealthy people donated?

wiki what?
I can't see any way to donate on their website:
Wiki: Welcome Visitors

[TimberWolf]

Nope, never even considered it.

Any chance you can retro-fit a poll?

Might be.

That Jimmy Wales comes across as a grade A fanny.

Why do they just not add some banners ads and make some money?

I think it goes against their idealism of being independent.

[SimonMac]

I have donated my time to fixing errors in articles, does that count?!
