Target reached Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia largest Internet will remain free for another year thanks to the signing of players: a few days before the tenth anniversary of its foundation, the brainchild of Jimmy Wales has reached and passed the ' fundraising goal of $ 16 million that will not have to collect advertising for at least another year. "It is proof of the spirit behind the Wikipedia," Wales said. The fundraising was the largest of the ten-year history of the encyclopedia: 500 000 people in 140 countries have contributed just 50 days. The announcement was made by the Wikimedia Foundation, the nonprofit organization that runs Wikipedia and related projects. In full panic about the future of publishing in a world that will not pay for information, Wikipedia was launched in mid-November the signing: "The advertising and business are not the devil, but they are concepts that do not belong to us. We are like a library or a public park, "explained Wales whose picture at the opening of each page online encyclopedia, has helped to convince readers. It is taken as one of the fastest fundraising history. "Wikipedia is the only major site of the top ten on the Internet that is free of advertising, thanks mainly to its users," he detto la direttrice esecutiva di Wikimedia Sue Gardner annunciando che gli 'striscionì in apertura di pagina saranno sostituiti da altri che ringraziano la comunità globale e invitano i 400 milioni di utenti a diventare volontari.
La raccolta fondi avviene ogni anno ma nel 2009 avevano contribuito a Wikipedia in 230 mila mentre stavolta oltre mezzo milione di persone hanno investito una media di 22 dollari a testa. L'annuncio di Wikimedia coincide con un altro proclama sul web secondo cui Facebook continua a dimostrare il successo di un altro modello di profitti online: la pubblicità. Goldman Sachs investirà 450 milioni di dollari sul social network dando al sito web di Mark Zuckenberg, che nel 2010 è stato il più visitato della network, a theoretical assessment of the market of 50 billion dollars. Wikipedia to the end of the campaign coincides with the celebrations of the tenth anniversary Jan. 15: to support the celebrations that include video-conferencing of Wales with the communities around the world t-shirts will be produced in limited editions in 200 languages \u200b\u200bin the world in sales for 25 dollars each for the benefit of the encyclopedia.
