Line 4:
I was one of the volunteers who created Wikipedia. And we decided a long time ago that sharing information and educating people is more important than making money. That’s why Wikipedia is now hosted by a non-profit organization, and will never ever run ads.
It does take money to keep the servers running and pay a small staff. But instead of having advertisers and financial influence skewing what we do, every year we simply ask our readers to vote with their dollars to support a real community of people who represent something different on the Internet. Please pitch in with {{AppealAmountSwitch|language=en|country={{{country}}}|amount=all|$5, $10}} or whatever you can.
After years of editing Wikipedia, I finally went on staff as a software developer. And I can tell you, the infrastructure that supports Wikipedia is about as barebones as it gets.
