I'm $15 richer than I was yesterday? It's not like some commercial advert,
it's just an invitation to take part in a survey. I don't see what's got
people so hot under the collar.

Thomas,
We had no involvement in this, and I'm not aware that we were even told about it in
the first place. What do WMUK members (ie people on this email list) think of the banner?

I just loaded a Wikipedia article and rather than a

banner, I saw a banner asking me to participate in a research project
(a fairly standard game theory type experiment involving how to share
money between yourself and other participants). It was made clear that
the banner was approved by the WMF and the Wikimedia Research
Committee. I'm wondering what involvement Wikimedia UK had in deciding
to put this banner up. I notice I was given an option to donate my
"earnings" to the WMF (or the International Red Cross), but not WMUK
(I chose to keep mine for myself and will pass them on the WMUK once
they arrive in my paypal account).
