<div><br></div><div><a href="http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_2010/Jimmy_appeal_2" target="_blank"></a>This one is performing very well in English, but may be tricky to translate - it's idiomatic. This is probably a good time to mention again that we're looking for localization - not strict, word-for-word translation. If a phrase doesn't work, don't use it, or substitute something better. :)</div>
