PetitCalgonQqn peut résumer l'article long et en anglais en quelques points ?... .. .... ... .... .. !
If you are planning to donate to Wikipedia the next time you see a fundraising banner pop up, be very clear on what the effort is you are supporting. You are not supporting many thousands of rank-and-file volunteers creating and maintaining content you appreciate. Not a penny goes to them. (Perhaps someone should start a fund?)
Your money will not pay for any staff or outside experts tasked with checking and improving Wikipedia content. Out of the 215 employees of the Wikimedia Foundation, not a single one is given responsibility for evaluating the content of Wikipedia.
What you are supporting is in large part the further ambitious expansion of an organisation that does with paid staff what volunteers used to do for you for free, and which at present has alienated a significant part of the project’s volunteer community. And you’re gambling on the chance that the WMF’s new Executive Director will be able to turn the ship around, and ensure that your money is used in a way that delivers better value to you, the reader, than has been the case to date.
