Hi there,

I am interested in making a donation to wikipedia, but I cannot afford a large donation.

If I send you a small donation via paypal, etc., a sizeable percentage will be eaten up in fees, and I want to donate to wikipedia, not paypal, visa or mastercard.

I would like to make the donation via bitcoin, so that wikipedia will receive the entire amount, but I do not see a bitcoin donation address anywhere on your site.

Can you please let me know what bitcoin address I can use to send a donation to?

Highest Regards,
Jeremy West

Looks good, I wrote once already. I don't remember to which address, what's best to write to to actually get read and maybe a response?

I know they have rejected bitcoin several times, I was just adding one more request to the pile because I was on wikipedia and saw their huge banner begging for donations. Cheesy

That sounds so immature to not accept Bitcoin because Wikileaks has, if that is the case.

They never said it directly, but it got pretty irritating.

I've sent something like 5 emails to different people from the WikiMedia organization. They are not interested in bitcoin donations. I know several people even promised a couple hundred or thousand dollars worth in BTC if they put up an address. I think Wikipedia doesn't want to be associated with something that has been used by Wikileaks...
