{{cquote|I am a university professor of engineering with interests in music and history. Next week, I am taking my students on a study tour of industrial sites in Germany and the Check Republic. We will visit the Porsche and BMW factories in Leipzig and the Toyota in Prague. We will attend concerts and opera and ballet performances. In organizing the tour, I needed to learn, inter alia, about the creation of the Porsche factory, architect Zaha Hadid who designed the BMW factory, the Toyota production system, Johann Sebastian Bach, about the bombing of Dresden and the Frauenkirche, about the history of the Czech Republic and much more about technology, history, and music. I was able to find out about all I needed thanks to the Wikipedia. Thanks to the Wikipedia could schedule visits and presentations easily. Thanks Wikipedia, keep up the good work.}} |

{{cquote|I first learned about Wikipedia while in 2003, while filling the hours at one of my many co-op jobs as a student. I was absolutely amazed at the tremendous volume value of input that existed at that time, and I have learned a great deal from this website. To watch this website grow organically and without a profit motive exponentially over the years has been both exciting and heartwarming. Wikipedia must always continue in its original tradition. Thank you, Wikipedia! You have made the world a happier place.}} |
