Something like this, only in a variety of languages.

Now up on a number of Wikimedia sites; with a few large ones left to be 
targeted (trying not to unilaterally change the sitenotice without the 
help of a local admin on the larger projects).

Some wikipedias are trying a sitenotice implementation that only shows up 
for *logged-in* users; just as others have suggested in the past having 
fundraiser messages primarily targeted at non-logged-in users.  all 
something to consider in working out what general policies should be for 
various flavours of site notice.
