Dear Susan,
You are amazing, thank you so much for donating to the Wikimedia Foundation!
This is how we pay our bills -- it's people like you, giving five dollars, twenty dollars, a hundred dollars. My favourite donation last year was five pounds from a little girl in England, who had persuaded her parents to let her donate her allowance. It's people like you, joining with that girl, who make it possible for Wikipedia to continue providing free, easy access to unbiased information, for everyone around the world. For everyone who helps pay for it, and for those who can't afford to help. Thank you so much.
I know it's easy to ignore our appeals, and I'm glad that you didn't. From me, and from the tens of thousands of volunteers who write Wikipedia: thank you for helping us make the world a better place. We will use your money carefully, and I thank you for your trust in us.
Thanks,
*Sue Gardner* Wikimedia Foundation Executive Director

Hi;
Could I humbly suggest the image in the campaign notice bar be moved to the other edge of the page. In the default skins, the article title has every appearance of being a caption to the picture. This can cause un-intended comic effects, depending which article one is reading.

A rather OTT one I print-screened for effect: http://imgur.com/SfSDr
But, yes, this has been mentioned a few times by people writing in to OTRS and also on some social media sites.

TMI department, I am tracking down info I can usefully present to a "socialized medicine" practitioner about my melena. And naturally consequently foregoing any more iron supplements for the rest of the week. And try to get anything rude from that, you will not have gotten anything in contravention of "Principle of least astonishments" no matter how you care to define it. /sarcasm
Congratulations and thank you for everyone who working on it. the next 2 month is not going to be easier! :)
