I feel like I’m living the first line of my obituary.
Line 5 ⟶ 7:
Wikipedia is the 5th most visited website in the world. I work at the small non-profit that keeps it on the web. We don’t run ads because doing so would sacrifice our independence. The site is not and should never be a propaganda tool.
Our work is possible because of donations from our readers. Will you help protect Wikipedia by donating {{AppealAmountSwitch|language=en|country={{{country}}}|amount=all|$5, €10, ¥1000}} or whatever you can afford?
I work at the Wikimedia Foundation because everything in my soul tells me it’s the right thing to do. I’ve worked at huge tech companies, doing some job to build some crappy thing that’s designed to steal money from some kid who doesn’t know it. I would come home from work crushed.
