{{cquote|Reader, Writer, and Believer. The collection of all knowledge is a goal which I hope we can achieve. For the longest time I wondered who wrote all the scientific articles on wikipedia. All the enzymes, metabolites, physics, pathways, cycles and more detailed and simplified. This year I started editing pages on Helicases and Telomeres and I realized its people like me. People like you. We all contribute, we all benefit. Wikipedia.}} |

{{cquote|I have been using Wikipedia since my high school days and I am now a 25 year old medical student. I am currently studying for my United States Medical Licensing Exam(Step 1) and I have to say throughout my medical school years I have used Wikipedia as a source of studying more than my medical textbooks. On a daily basis, I come across terminology or pathologies that I am not aware of or do not remember so I quickly look them up on Wikipedia and all my problems are solved. I consider this website one of my closest friends because it's always there for me and has never let me down. Wikipedia is one of the few sources in my life that has helped or benefited me the most. I know I will continue to use it for the preparation of my exam, throughout medical school, and for the rest of my life. I am a student currently taking out loans and do not have an income, but I felt something in my heart when I read about the donation to Wikipedia and just knew I had to contribute. I'm glad I did and knowing I could help out just a little to keep such an amazing and helpful human knowledge database alive is rewarding. I am a proud member of the Wikipedia family and salute all of my fellow Wikipedia users and donors. Thank you for the best invention on the planet, Mr. Jimmy Wales.}} |
