The fundraising notice for the German Wikipedia has been temprarily
disabled. We think that since the German Verein will need a few more
days to be able to receive donations ...
It would be counterproductive to direct people to a page prompting them
to make donations to a US account. Knowing Germans, that will result in
relatively few donations. (Many Germans, for example, don't have a
credit card.) If on the other hand we wait for a few days, until the
bank account for the Verein has been set up, we estimate that we will
recieve much more donations.
It would be nice if such actions were discussed beforehand.
