Shame on Wikipedia
Yeah, I was wondering every damn person on this earth is trying to help Haitians in every possible way. Every government, company and celebrity is trying to help Haitians. People who did not even think about donating ever are doing it. And While I was thinking what else could be done, I stumbled upon Wikipedia website. And imagine.. the page which Wikipedia had setup some time ago for donation is gone. That means they could arrange those 6 million $. Yes they did, reports Business insider and other websites as well.
Now when the whole world is sending money to Haiti, Wikipedia should have shown some courtesy and Social Responsibility to setup a page asking for donation for the people in Haiti who actually need help in this hour. I am pretty sure the way Wiki successfully raised $ 6 million for them people will definitely donate for Haiti relief fund.
I hope my message reaches to Wiki and Jimi actually starts working like a non profit organization. At least put a damn link to donate for Haiti relief on the Haiti Earth Quake page on Wikipedia website.. It will surely raise some money if not too much.
Below are some links through which you can donate for the relief funds setup for Haitians.
- Redcross
- Doctors without Borders
- Care
- Partners in Health
- World Vision
- UNICEF
- The Salvation Army
- International Relief and Development

why would you bother donating through a third party when you could donate directly to the red cross? they’re an encyclopedia not a relief org

You got me wrong buddy. I am not asking people to go on Wikipedia and donate from wikipedia itself. I am asking to put a page or link or something like I have done on my post to urge more and more people to donate towards a humane reason. I hope I am clear now.

Should we change it to Chili now?
Probably not, as Chili has more resources and will recover from their devastation much more quickly, but there’s always a worthy cause.

See it is shown in all the comments that every one expect Wikipedia knows what to do and what is right. So I must say we all are aware that what is right and what is wrong. You have done good job dear.
