Every year Wikipedia asks for donations, and I give them $20.00. So yes I pay for Wikipedia. Because I use it everyday.

I've given them a dollar for every edit I've made and taken away a dollar for every edit that was removed.
They owe me |

I contribute about $30 a year.
I get thousands back in information. Remember the Encyclopedias Americana and Britannica? Huge and hugely expensive with updates yearly. Yearly! I also use Google a lot, but I think they get more back somehow. |

Every contribution I made to Wikipedia (even a decade ago) remains. Every so often, some extremist will overwrite some paragraphs. I was amazed. Others, in less than 24 hours, undid that misinformation. Many of the original sentences from a decade ago still remain - some had to be restored.
Examples include facts about Sadddam's WMDs. What was written then remains factual today. |
