my thoughts exactly. Stop being a left-wing propaganda site and you can get donations from those generous people who mostly are on the Right.

Is the site a useful service or not? Is the information generally correct out side of a few politically charged issues? Sure I know Global Warming is a farce, but is the rest of the info really that bad?

Try Madoff & Assoc, I hear their yearly returns are great. Another non-profit scam-I wonder how much Wales takes in salary from his "non-profit" organization?
Your donation will help keep Wikipedia free for the whole world (and keep Jimmy Wales in beer money)

I can’t remember Dave Mustaine’s (from the band Megadeth) exact quote but it was something about him liking to visit Wikipedia because he always learns stuff about himself that even he didn’t know.
I’d like to be able to put more faith in Wikipedia as I think the basic concept is good, but I always have to wonder how accurate the information is.

Good luck wringing donations from the leftwingers who rely on your site.
Unless you can think of a way they can donate someone else's money.

It seems some here have a problem with what they perceive as an ideological bias at Wikipedia. I wouldn't be at all surprised if all kinds of data could be produced to substantiate the charge, too.
But guess what? I couldn't care less if the guy and his tiny staff of 23 are sworn Bolsheviks, bent on seizing every last scrap of private property worldwide. Whatever they are, the tremendously valuable resource they've created and maintain, Wikipedia, is bar none the best thing on the internet today, piddling errors and scattered biases notwithstanding.
Everybody involved in the project deserves high praise, and maybe a little change jingling in their pockets too.

Twenty-three paid parasites and $6 million?
That comes to $25000 per loser, including the chief loser.
Maybe Soros can chip in to the carefully monitored revisionist propaganda machine?

If you want to shift wikipedia in a conservative direction, then you should donate and send a comment with your concerns, quit complaining, sign up for an account, and get to editing. It’s a lot like education. Yes, there are quite a few barriers to jobs for conservatives in education right now, but the more conservatives you get employed the fewer barriers there will be.

That’s $260,869.57 per employee. I’d say someone has ‘Madeoff’ with a lot of wiki’s money if they can’t pay the staff.
