| |
| | |
| On 15 November, the Wikimedia movement launched its annual
| |
| fundraiser. This fundraiser represents a big step forward for
| |
| Wikimedia UK, since this is the first year in which we are taking full
| |
| responsibility for collecting donations in the UK. This year, all
| |
| donations from within the UK come to us. We plan to donate half of the
| |
| money we receive to the Foundation to support the global activities of
| |
| the movement and spend the remainder ourselves on activities in the
| |
| UK.
| |
| | |
| We are approximately a third of the way through the fundraiser now and
| |
| have already raised over £350,000. We aim to raise at least £500,000
| |
| and I am optimistic that we can exceed even that target. The more we
| |
| raise, the more we will be able to do. You can support the fundraiser
| |
| both by donating (just click on the banner at the top of any Wikipedia
| |
| article) and by writing your own appeal
| |
| [[m:Fundraising_2010/Write_An_Appeal|here]] - we are working with the
| |
| Foundation to test lots of different banners and a personal appeal
| |
| from you might just be what our donors respond to!

| ==Editor's notes==
| |
| If as a reader you find excessive or impenetrable jargon in any
| |
| article, let the editor know and we'll print some explanations. BLP = "biography of
| |
| living person". Johnbod, he tells me, lives near London and spends (he says) far too
| |
| much time contributing to Wikipedia, especially on medieval art. He is too modest
| |
| to point out his FAs (Featured Articles). Another UK Wikimedian to be found
| |
| recently on the Main Page is User:Colds7ream who has helped the Wikipedia
| |
| article International Space Station to FA level, appearing there on 23 October.
