Many institutions and businesses accepts BTC's already, so why not Wikipedia. It's probably only a formality now till loads of other shops accepts BTC's.

Why would I donate to a site that is responsible for centralizing information around the world? I can't believe people are helping information get centralized even more.

LOL, Wikipedia centralizes information kind of like how bitcoin centralizes currency, amirite?  Makes sense... Wink

Wikipedia is nice and all but it wouldn't hurt to decentralize.


Then lets educate Jimmy.  First step Bitcoins.  Then lets look at what else we could bring to the table using this new technology.
Regardless of what you think of Jimmy Wales, he could be very good for Bitcoin.  End goal: decentralize.

Not sure if I should donate. After all, I think wikipedia is possibly a fad. It's paramount I be prudent with my financial resources, and I've even heard that academics have stated that you cannot trust the information written on wikipedia.

I will monitor the issue closely and if circumstances change, I might revisit my position.

I won't donate to Wikipedia.

While there are some values I get from wikipedia,
I dont like the fact that they promote the talking
points of the establishment as truth.

That said, Wikipedia accepting bitcoin donations
will help bitcoin and I hope it happens.

This guy has no shame to solicit BTC donations like that...

There are plenty of worthwhile charities around and this is who you send your Bitcoins to?...

You're saying Jimmy Wales's vacation fund is not a worthy cause?

On a serious note: It's cool that he can see the power of bitcoin. And how easy it is to donate. I think Wikipedia will eventually accept it, if not only because they have to not to be left behind.

Just because it's a nonprofit doesn't mean they don't pay salaries
