{{cquote|Its been fun seeing wikipedia grow and become such a useful part of our lives. I dont think most people can imagine what they would do without it, just like how everyone knows you can google something - and usually that leads to a plethora of wiki pages on the subject. Its a great resource to have for studying, or for entertainment. |

My work has a wiki to organize all our work help files, processes, and other information. Its amazing that this software is available for anyone to make their own database of search-able and editable information. The format is so easy to use and understand. Our lives are better with wiki- plain and simple. |

My donation may be meger, but It is still a show of support, and if each of us made a meger donation, wiki could go on forever. :-) Thank you wiki staff for all that you do. }} |

{{cquote|Commercialization invades, cheapens, and violates every aspect of our lives. It seems there is no way to escape it. I must even endure commercials in the cable TV I buy and the movies I pay to see. The fact that a world class repository of information like this can be accessed without the proliferation of ridiculous, insulting, and distracting advertisements is phenomenal. |

To find an encyclopedia that essentially embodies the collective global knowledge in a concise, organized, and consistent format is truly auspicious. The fact that it can be accessed without charge defies logic. |
