-- True. I also saw the banner several times (not this year) until I
enabled " Suppress display of fundraiser banners" in preferences>>gadgets
(tried on En Wikipedia). As a sidenote I found it very difficult to donate
using an Indian Visa debit card or internet banking (that's all I have). It
would be great if someone can suggest me (feel free to PM me or write to
User talk:Titodutta directly) how to donate using the mentioned payment
options.
Thanks

WMF hasn't shown fundraising banners to
logged in users for several
years.
While I wouldn't bet my life on it, I'm pretty sure I saw banners on
mobile just last month, while being logged in.
