I agree with Chris. Furthermore: Wikimedia Nederland, like all chapters, puts a lot of effort in raising awareness of and support for the Wikimedia projects. I would really like to know if these efforts 'pay off'.

Hi Chuck,
The reasons the question keeps getting asked is because it was never really answered in the first place.
The only good reason I can think of for not publishing country-level data is that there are some countries where that could create risks to the WMF or individuals because they're places where giving donations to a US nonprofit is either illegal or politically risky.
However that doesn't apply to most countries, so why not publish the data for most of the world?
Chris

Hi Philip,
We do not publish country-level fundraising numbers. My colleague Stephen discussed why on this list a few years back, so rather than paraphrasing his previous email I'll just provide a link to it:
