>> Hi,
>>
>> Referring to the last few sentences of the letter of appeal I have a few
>> inquires. Take a look at the following sentences.
>>
>> We want to keep it free and strong, but we need the support of thousands
>> of
>> people like you.
>>
>> I invite you to join us: Your donation will help keep Wikipedia free for
>> the
>> whole world.
>>
>> The sentence structure seems to claim that WP will place advertising if it
>> doesn't receive enough funding and I do believe that this isn't what we
>> would want.
>>
>> What if WP lack of funding, will the foundation use advertising as a
>> threat
>> for donation? I hope Jimmy didn't wrote that appeal personally. Perhaps it
>> is just another staff. No insult or criticism. I am just asking.
>>
>> Let me know what you think.
>>
