Nearly everyone who has commented on-wiki thinks the current fundraising
banner is especially awful and EN is discussing replacing it.

At the risk of being rude, it would have been much better if the Foundation
had provided an open invitation for design feedback from the major wiki
communities before foisting this across every page.
