If you\u2019ve lost count of how many times you\u2019ve visited Wikipedia this year, we hope that means it\u2019s given you at least $2.75 of knowledge. If everyone who finds Wikipedia useful gave $2.75, we\u2019d hit our goal in a few hours.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been 25 years and Wikipedia is still free. It\u2019s still created by people, not machines, and we don\u2019t run ads or put up paywalls because we\u2019re not here to make a profit off your attention. In other words, it\u2019s still the internet we were promised.<\/p>\n<p>Less than 2% of our readers donate, so if you\u2019ve never given and Wikipedia has provided you with at least $2.75 worth of knowledge, donate today. If you are undecided, remember any contribution helps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You deserve an explanation, so please don\u2019t skip this 1-minute read.
