Yes, it is true. I am a financial contributor to the great Wiki.

Greg

...so you have standing to sue?

Did you want a barnstar or something?

I would love one! On Wikipedia, of course, please.

I was a donor once too, but I never expected to get a barnstar because of it. Imagine my surprise when I got a thank you card. Maybe you'll get one of those eventually.

Is this like saying "I am an alcoholic?"

i expected to get a barnstar, but never did.

"Hello. I'm Greg, and I'm a donor."

"Hello, Greg."

And I flush my money down the toilet. It appears that we both get the same results, except that mine comes faster.

the good book says: "to give alms to the poor"
you will receive your just reward in the afterlife

Looking at their list of donations, some guy gave them USD 10K


Remembering what I learn't from the good book, let's see, worthwhile causes

- International Red cross,
- any sort of mainstream humanitarian charity (Not Mr Wales),
- save the planet charities,
- save the cats, dogs, birds, monkeys etc


Bottom of the list, Wikimedia Foundation.

Yes, that's Mr. Sanford Gallanter, founder of the Aspen Group, a company that rehabilitates housing for low- and moderate-income families and has created more than 2,000 low-income housing units in New Jersey, San Francisco, and San Jose.

He is an adjunct professor at the University of San Francisco Graduate School of Education. He served 10 years on the University of Haifa board and on the S.F.-based Jewish Community Federation board, where he was chair of the capital funds committee.

He lives in the Seacliff neighborhood of San Francisco, close to the sea, where the houses go for $2 million to $9 million.

He probably blew his nose, and $10K came out onto the tissue.

Yes, but can you sleep at night knowing that you kept Wikipedia going for about 5 milliseconds?
