Donate to Wikipedia

[old man emu]

I use Wikipedia extensively. It's free to use, but there's nor such thing as a free lunch. At the moment Wikipedia is asking users to make a donation to support its continued existence. If you use Wikipedia a lot, and you have gained a lot of knowledge from accessing it, then seriously consider making a donation.

These days I  have begun paying for some stuff -

Donated to Guardian, Wiki, etc.

 

I'm motivated to do so,  by seeing the (poor) quality and value represented by MSM subscriptions - which I refuse to pay.

Ian never got back to us about contributing to the costs of this site, did he.

Nope.. But we should patronise his clear prop store for all our aviation needs. Seems pretty well priced.. When I get back, its an Icom transciever.. (I have an 8.33mhz one here).

But what if one is an aviation hanger-on with no use for those sort of things? There has to be another way to give support.

 

By the way, very shortly after making my donation to Wikipedia I received an email thanking me for the donation and including receipt details.

He won't hear it over the thunder of 750cc of American brute force nostalgia.
