Looking for something to do? Have we got a list for you.

Other fun ideas

PortlandWiki "Please Read" Banner

SourceWatch's "Please Read" Banner

A few non-Wikipedia wikis currently mimic Wikipedia's "please read" banner that thrusts itself onto the tops of wiki pages the world over. Most of 'em are begging for monetary donations.

Perhaps a talented PortlandWiki contributor can construct one for PortlandWiki. Instead of cash, the PortlandWiki banner could solicit contributions like those itemized in the "to do" list above.

Rules:
No pics of Jimmy Donal "Jimbo" Wales allowed on PortlandWiki banners, please.

Comments

Great idea, but maybe too late now? WP's fundraising drive is pretty much over now, so may be no longer relevant... I think we missed the boat. 8( -kotra (talk) 20:36, 3 January 2011 (PST)
