Line 1: == Wikipedia still can't be sold. == ~~<div>~~ ~~Wikipedia is the #5 site on the web and serves 500 million different people every month – with billions of page views.~~ ~~Commerce is fine. Advertising is not evil. But it doesn't belong here. Not in Wikipedia.~~ Thank you for considering a donation to the Wikimedia Foundation. ~~Wikipedia is something special. It is like a library or a public park. It is like a temple for the mind. It is a place we can all go to think, to learn, to share our knowledge with others.~~ When I founded Wikipedia, I could have made it into a for-profit company with advertising banners, but I decided to do something different. We’ve worked hard over the years to keep it lean and tight. We fulfill our mission efficiently. We invite you to reflect on the number of times you visited Wikipedia in the last year. If the knowledge you gained here was valuable, please join the 2% of readers who donate. Any amount helps: {{AppealAmountSwitch\|language=en\|country={{{country}}}\|amount=all\|$5, $20, $50}}, or whatever feels right to you today. ~~If everyone reading this donated, our fundraiser would be done within an hour. But not everyone can or will donate. And that's fine. Each year just enough people decide to give.~~ In the age of AI, access to verifiable facts is crucial. Wikipedia is at the heart of online information, powering everything from your personal searches to emerging AI technologies. Your gift strengthens the knowledge of today and tomorrow. This year, please consider making a donation of <span class="consider-amounts">{{AppealAmountSwitch\|language=en\|country={{{country}}}\|amount=all\|$5, $20, $50}}</span> or whatever you can to protect and sustain Wikipedia. If Wikipedia has given you useful knowledge this year, please give back. There are no small contributions: every edit counts, every donation counts. ~~Thanks,~~ Thank you. ~~'''Jimmy Wales''' <br/>~~ ~~Wikipedia Founder~~ ~~</div>~~
