Maybe include the fact that the donation is tax-deductible…

I think this would be a good idea to help support the foundation and the Wikimedia projects.

@Bob The content is free, yes, but the cost of running a server farm to serve that content (especially one as large as Wikimedia’s) most certainly is not.

Based on my analysis of the last fund-raising cycle, I recommend a small, say 40×40 pixel photograph of Jimbo’s head.

I am serious. I am completely serious.

– with a link to the “personal appeal” letter.

If anyone claims I am not serious I will show them the regression model.

Oh, and the text there is incorrect. Wikipedia’s content will remain free regardless of what happens to your foundation.

The garishness of the button is inversely proportional to the likelihood of me pressing it.
