{{cquote|Personally, I was able to add a comment to erroneous information about a family member that was within your "library" and that was verified by Wikipedia. |

Wikipedia is a non-commercial internet community based site where a huge amount of information can be found for free, with no advertising! It is a good place to start when researching any topic. Journalists and reporters say that it is the first place they look when researching a story. Few have any staff or budget these days; Wikipedia keeps the free press going! |
|||
Wikipedia is unique and only employs 50 people in its foundation. Many people who onced contributed now prefer Twitter & Facebook to promote themselves and other products. Since Wikipedia will not accept dvertisements,donations are now necessary to keep Wikipedia as one of few remaining non-commercial aspects left on the internet. }} |

{{cquote|In 1995 I lost my oldest son at age 42 from a brain Tumor, One of the many good memories was his meeting Joe Namath after a N.Y. Jets loss to our Oakland Raiders,in which Mr Namath received a broken jaw in that game. He signed my sons Jets Pennant and spoke with him for several minutes,with a broken jaw. Thanks to wikipedia, all I wanted to know about that game, Joe Namath is a class act. }} |
