Hi Jessie,
Thanks for following up.
I think Gayle will be responding to this thread also, but she is a little
busy right now as I think we can all understand.
In the meantime, I hope that you add to your list of all places receiving
movement funding resources any major projects within WMF.

Hi,
I've just seen an OTRS ticket asking why isn't Wikipedia giving its
pages for adoption (like when you adopt a page and your name ends up
on its cage or something like that). I've moved the ticket to the
donations queue, but I was wondering if this has ever been

of the volunteers that wrote the article (which anything on the article
page itself would be) then it doesn't really seem fair...

Yes, but it might be nice if we could let people pay trusted editors to
improve articles (without a COI and with a NPOV) that normally wouldn't get
attention.

It would be completely against our culture. Wikipedia is a volunteer
written encyclopedia.
You would end up with a two-tier system of paid editors and unpaid editors.
There would inevitably be a lot of conflict between those
