I think, Joan, there's a misunderstanding here about what does <i>fund raising</i> mean. If it has to do with <i>raising funds</i>, in the general sense, I agree with you. However, in case we are talking about the global <i>fundraising</i> campaign, then the general agreement, even within this MR working group, is that it is restricted to WMF and those Wikimedia chapters able to participate, mostly because partner organizations or whatever Wikimedian association different from a chapter won't necessarily be subject to the territory of a certain state (be it national or subnational) as chapters are. <br>
<br>I think Béria understands your edits in the second sense, and you intend to mean the former: that Amical, for instance, is able to raise funds. Rewording that may avoid the edit war, IMHO.<br><br>Best,<br>galio<br><br>
