People on this mailing list are just translators of the messages, like
you are. If you want to talk to the people who wrote this message, you
will have to mail to foundation-l or to Jimbo himself.

I actually sent it in this mailing list because, I
came across that while
translating.
Although I don't like the way it is written, I translated it based on the
original version.

Subject: Re: [Translators-l] [Fundraising 2008] Important: Appeal
I am afraid this is the wrong list for such a question. The folks on
foundation-l will probably be able to answer your question.

Hi,
Referring to the last few sentences of the letter of appeal I have a few
inquires. Take a look at the following sentences.
We want to keep it free and strong, but we need the support of thousands
of
people like you.
I invite you to join us: Your donation will help keep Wikipedia free for
the
whole world.
The sentence structure seems to claim that WP will place advertising if it
doesn't receive enough funding and I do believe that this isn't what we
would want.
What if WP lack of funding, will the foundation use advertising as a
threat
for donation? I hope Jimmy didn't wrote that appeal personally. Perhaps it
is just another staff. No insult or criticism. I am just asking.
Let me know what you think.
Regards,
Kong Soon
