{{cquote|I am a scholar, who was once highly critical of Wikipedia as a site where "anyone can say anything" and "truth is decided by a majority vote." However, due to the persistent commitment of knowledgeable users, the vigilance of dedicated volunteer administrators, and the enhancement of editing regulations, Wikipedia has so improved its credibility within academic circles that I am now not only a user, but an active endorser and supporter of both wiki technology and the Wikimedia Project. |

I now see Wikipedia as I do NPR: a public news service that I have used, but have yet to pay for. Please accept my donation as a small token of my appreciation of the service that Wikipedia provides. Just as I am a proud listener-member of NPR, I am honored to call myself a Wikipedia user-member. }} |

{{cquote|I am a librarian who consults Wikipedia every day. It's valuable to my work, and sometimes I read it just for fun. I am also an occasional contributor. For me, Wikipedia embodies everything good about the Digital Age. Whenever I need a dose of optimism about the future of humanity, all I need to do is browse Wikipedia.}} |
