We should not ask for it, but we should subtly make
readers aware of 
the  
community fundraising process, so that those who
already use Wikipedia  
occasionally and always wanted to give something back
and who read the 
PR  
know that they now have the opportunity to do so.

Regards,

Erik

The occasionnal reader, seing the PR in the press will
probably have the reaction to drop by. Then, he may
see a donation link quite well, if placed
appropriately on the main page. We can make it quite
proeminent during promotion time.
