== From Wikipedia programmer Ryan Kaldari ==
 
The Internet used to be really cool.
 
Line 10 ⟶ 12:
Google might have close to a million servers. Yahoo has something like 13,000 staff. We have 679 servers and 95 staff.
 
Wikipedia is the #5 site on the web and serves 450470 million different people every month – with billions of page views.
 
The best thing about donating is that when you contribute {{AppealAmountSwitch|language=en|country={{{country}}}|amount=$5|$10}} to Wikipedia, it’s multiplied many times over. If that {{AppealAmountSwitch|language=en|country={{{country}}}|amount=$5|$10}} goes to help pay one developer’s salary, who then develops a tool that lets 1,000 volunteers do something great on Wikipedia, then all of a sudden your {{AppealAmountSwitch|language=en|country={{{country}}}|amount=$5|$10}} has facilitated a lot more than it can in any other website.
 
Your donation will help us keep making Wikipedia better – and to make sure that at least this part of the Internet stays cool.
