To all our readers in Germany,
It might be a little awkward, but please don't scroll past this. This is the 6th day of our campaign. This Monday, for the 1st time recently, we humbly ask you to defend Wikipedia's independence. 99% of our readers don't give; they simply look the other way. If you are an exceptional reader who has already donated, we sincerely thank you. We depend on donations averaging about €21.60. Our fundraising appeal is displayed over 7 million times a day, but currently only 32,163 people have donated. If you donate just €5, Wikipedia could keep thriving for years. Most people donate because Wikipedia is useful. If Wikipedia has given you €5 worth of knowledge this year, take a minute to donate. Show the volunteers who bring you reliable, neutral information that their work matters. Thank you.
