ecently, the Wikimedia Foundation put up banner ads and a donation “thermometer” in order to scrounge up another million bucks from donors who don’t realize the monster they are feeding. I list down the top 7 reasons why you shouldn’t donate to the Wikimedia Foundation.

1. Wikipedia has amassed too much power. It has taken over Google and is almost always listed first before other websites. That’s not the problem though. Wikipedia has the ability to set the ‘truth’ (which can be perceived negatively as well) but it gives undue credibility to what is often false or misleading information. Here’s a grave example.
