"Wikipedia is a charity" ?
People always say "non-profit" when describing WMF, is it a
charity?
The two terms are different. (In the UK, the WMF would probably be
considered charitable, I don't know what the requirements are in the
US.)
The bottom of every page on en:wp says it's a charity!
(I put that text there, after precise phrasing was worked out on the
comcom list. If it's wrong we should change it ...)
says "nonprofit charitable
organization". I don't know why people generally say "non-profit"
instead of "charity", then - charity would be more precise and would
probably be better perceived.
