    I try to donate a few bucks every year to Wikipedia … my thinking is that if every person that uses Wikipedia just donated a dollar, they would have more than enough to fund their organization.

    But after reading these stupid headlines … I made a $50 donation for the first time. I use the site just about every day for reference … I should be paying for it and I’m happy to.

      This is going to be an unpopular opinion here but based on the available info Wikipedia has enough to keep running for many years without issue.

      It’s kind of the best way to come about realizing something’s value and the need to support it. Good on you!!

      I usually do, again only a few bucks.

      This absolute wealth of knowledge on virtually everything for an optional donation of a few $ a year - abso-fucking-lutely.
