St Scholastica Day riot

Wikipedia is not for sale. A personal appeal from Jimmy Wales

Please don't skip this 1-minute read. This Sunday, March 19, I humbly ask you to reflect on the number of times you visited Wikipedia in the past year, the value you got from it, and whether you're able to give ¥300 back. If you can, please join the 2% of readers who give. If everyone reading this right now gave just ¥300, we'd hit our goal in a couple of hours. ¥300 is all I ask.

When I set up the Wikimedia Foundation as a nonprofit to host Wikipedia and 12 other free knowledge projects, it meant that we could preserve our core values: neutral, high quality information, not outrage and clickbait. Being a nonprofit means there is no danger that someone will buy Wikipedia and turn it into their personal playground.

If Wikipedia has given you ¥300 worth of knowledge this year, please donate now, it really matters. Thank you for your generosity!
