Well, I'm thrilled about this, especially after having had a look through https://www.slideshare.net/lucidworks/searching-for-better-code-presented-b… Honestly, though, it's only the third best thing that happened this week after Valerie Plame entering politics and the UC system divesting from fossil fuels. Grant, welcome! My advice is to set make a long list of concrete KPIs for contributor (e.g. editor) support, reach, and cloud support, in a way that can be used for fundraising. The fundraising messaging has been stuck for years on this thing about, "if everyone reading this contributed the cost of a cup of coffee, then _some goal here_," which is okay, but could be so much better flipped with the KPIs as the ask, e.g., "Each $CURRENCY you donate will pay to support N additional $CONTENTS," where the wikipedias can use ops measurements of the resources typical to, e.g., take an article from Start to B class, for example, or how much time, server electricity including idle time, and other resource it takes to get a new word added to Wiktionary to some level of proficiency. If these units relate to the potential donor's language or geography, all the better. People geolocated in the developed world using languages with highly developed wikipedias and wiktionaries can be told how much it would cost to, for example, eliminate units of the various WP:BACKLOG items you find suitable in multivariate e.g. Latin squares donation message testing. (Or add new technology projects like an intelligibility- and natural spoken feedback version of https://www.speechace.co/api_sample/ hint https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T166929#5473028 hint.) Also please take Curecoin instead of Bitcoin, even if that means paying the extra transaction fee before converting the Curecoin to cash. It is the height of folly to be as close to endorsing wasted electricity-based cryptocurrency as we already do, when alternatives with a benefit are less commonly known. The only other blockchain thing I like is that long-term state-sponsored censorship mitigation program can be based on copying the dumps to IPFS, but please also support the CDN efforts like Encrypted-SNI: https://twitter.com/jsalsman/status/1142172682751864832 https://twitter.com/jsalsman/status/1142940652851695616 https://twitter.com/jsalsman/status/1053786384463355905 Please let me know your thoughts.
