[Foundation-l] Fundraiser update

[Aphaia]

Not really, if you give your eyes to blogosphere global and hence
multingual, including mine. I hope some would go through mine to the
fundraising page, and some of trackbacks to my entry were clearly
positive ("I've donated them, you can do too") too.

It is still anectodal, but I think it good to show your commitment to
the project on your blog, not only through your editing. A blog entry
which reads "I love Wikipedia because xxx and will appreciate every
support, specially financial one" has worked well, at least in
Japanophone blogosphere.
