That is a 8 year old article, plus they are a democratic organisation where the board of director is elected by the editors, If they think they need the money to be the best wikipedia they can be i will take their word instead of some website owned by Jeff Bezos (And if i am reading wikipedia articles and learning, I am not wasting money and resources on amazon).
Thanks for the article.
