Personal appeals from prolific Wikipedians, New Jersey High Schools Options

[Peter Damian]

I suppose we have all noticed the new fundraiser today. Random pictures of people claiming to have generated lots of valuable yet free content. For example Alan Sohn – user:Alansohn – who says “On Wikipedia, I’ve created 2,463 articles. All of them for free. “

Great stuff, Alan, your most significant contribution seems to be ‘List of people from Teaneck, New Jersey’, 68 edits, but I couldn’t be bothered to check any further back than this year. Nearly all of your 2,463 articles are about High Schools in New Jersey. This does not persuade me to part any of my hard-earned cash to WMF, particularly not if I have to divert it from my current financial support of institutions like the Warburg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warburg_Institute . Interesting that the Warburg article is far smaller than any of the voluminous articles about New Jersey schools.

Here's an odd character.

I feel like I’m living the first line of my obituary.

You can't see his photo on that page, but when it pops up at Wikipedia, he looks like he works part-time at a meth lab.

According to Matthew from the WMF, Brandon Harris' banner is apparently doing the best of all of them.

His is only the second scariest one. I find that amusing.
