Hey, what happened to the donor comment box and the log of all donations? The links from prior year redirect to : http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Special:FundraiserStatistics
Thanks, Renata
On this list earlier this week, the same question was asked. Philippe Beaudette explained that the statistics from tests that were run prior to the fundraiser show that the donor comments actually suppressed the amount of donations we received. However, it is on our to-do list to find a way to make the comments work (perhaps from the "thank you" page which follows the donation process).
Thanks Sara. I was looking for that thinking that somebody already asked the q. That is so weird.... I would have never thought it would reduce donations....
Another q: are you going to have matching donations? If yes, I will wait to make mine. If not, I'll contribute now.
