We know about it because it is mentioned quite often on TV imported from the US. However, despite everyone having heard of Craigslist, it seems Britons aren't inspired to donate by its founder telling them to. While the Craig Appeal banner was being shown 20% of the time, Wikimedia UK saw a 20% drop in fundraising income compared to the WMF (I look at the ratios of our income to the WMF's, which usually cancels out any changes due to the different banners). There is plenty of variation day to day, but 20% is a bigger change that is usual.Local celebrities for next time.

There has been two X-factor singles. One from the winner, and one from all the finalist earlier for charity. ;-)
