It would make us an official Amazon.com business partner, and I'm not sure I'm very comfortable with that idea. Also, would it be compatible with Wikimedia's non profit status?
Yes, it would be fine. It wouldn't affect our 501(c)(3) status (which is different from 'non profit' status, actually), so people could still take a tax deduction for donating money to us. However, the income would be 'unrelated business income', and we'd have to pay taxes on the income over $1000, to be reported on Form 990-T.
