Regel 52:
; U bent nu een [[W:nl:Cause célèbre|"cause célèbre"]], en bent beroemd geworden met de groei van het Wikipedia project. Gebruikt u uw bekendheid om donaties te vragen aan de rijke en beroemde mensen die u tegenkomt?
* Ja. Ik ben nu full-time aalmoezenier <!--beggar-->. :)
; <!--Many traditional charity programs spend the majority of fundraising dollars on fundraisers. What is the estimate for the cost of this fundraiser, versus what you expect to raise? To qualify this question; some of the fundraising ratios seen are upwards of 80% of funds raised go for fundraising. : For the exact numbers, it will be best to consult with Mav (our CFO) and Michael (our Treasurer) as well as published results from past efforts. But obviously since the fund raising is done almost exclusively on the website itself (which costs no money), our efficiency is very very high. I don't know the exact numbers, but our costs are mostly just the bank fees and paypal fees.
: I think it's terrible when charities are that inefficient. I think fundraising expenses should be as low as reasonably possible.
; The current conflict over the Seigenthaler article has raised some ire outside the internet wikimedia community; How do you think this will affect, if at all, corporate or personal donations during this fund drive? : I don't think it will affect it. It's just news, there's always some news. If anything, I am hopeful that donations will increase just because more people are learning of us.
Regel 65:
; Mr. Seigenthaler's bio, and we've just discovered Mr. Graham's, were posted by anons. The first was a smear campaign, the second a copyvio of a press release. Obviously the former is a problem, but doesn't the latter also open Wikipedia up to being an advertising site? : We don't have a huge problem with people using Wikipedia for pr purposes, although I'm sure a little of it goes on here and there. I've never seen a really convincing case.
; I'm a contributor mostly on the Swedish projects. You don't speak Swedish, so I'm wondering if you ever look at non-English projects? Do you even notice us? :I am learning to speak German, so I do try to read German Wikipedia. And I do look at other languages, although of course I can't read anything there.
: What I do to try to be useful to other languages is communicate with people as much as I can, visit people in person as much as I can, and monitor the statistics pages to see what is going on.-->
