Why is one the most popular website Wikipedia asking for donations instead of postings ads ?
Favorite Answer:Wikipedia wants to remain ad free and I wish them luck. I donate about once every two years because I also donate to the Wayback Machine (Internet Archive) as well. If you use both, please help to keep them ad free. $5 every two years helps and it's not even the cost of a good coffee.

How to stop someone from editing Wikipedia article?
Favorite Answer:Read the following webpage, on the Wikipedia website, my friend.
Do you have evidence to support your claim that there were 8 million deaths, rather than the 800 thousand that this other person keeps changing it to? If you do, add this as a link to support your findings.

Does anyone else besides me think Wikipedia should be banned?

Why does Wikipedia not allow any association between the Richat Structure and Atlantis?
I have tried a few times to locate any information that link both the mythical (island) city of Atlantis to the Richat Structure. In both cases non were found on Wikipedia. Even though in recent times all kinds of proof came to light that the Richat Structure MIGHT have been the location of Atlantis. This one person on YouTube delved very deep into this matter and found indirect evidence that all hinted towards this possibility. But Wikipedia does not allow this, because, as they quote "it must be a proven fact". This contradicts for example the article about the existence of planet 9. So why is Wikipedia so reluctant to link these two? And what do you think?

Does Wikipedia Have Any Plans to Publish an American English Edition of Its Encyclopedia?
Favorite Answer:Hahaha!
The primary function of Wikipedia is to provide an online site for general information that can easily be edited by anyone. The two features, online and editing, directly goes against any form of publishing on paper.
As for the rest of your argument about American English? Sacrebleu!

Is every information on Wikipedia false?
Favorite Answer:No, of course not.
The 'problem' with citing Wikipedia is that anyone ... whether they are knowledgeable on a particular subject or not ... can make Wikipedia pages. This makes it NOT a credible source.
What you need to do is look for sources quoted by the person to 'back up' his/her entry and see whether they are legitimate sources.
