[the crisis reach wikipedia]

[GrisoM]

The interactive encyclopedia online Wikipedia seems to feel the effects of the international-financial crisis and his creator, Jimmy Wales, did not doubt in putting a warning in the page to ask solidarity his users for: " maintain the projects of Wikipedia" " imagin a world where each person of the planet has free access to the sum of all the human knowledge" , says the title of the cover where Wales calls to the readers and contributors of the encyclopedia to donate money. Wikipedia was defined by its founder like a "Free" encyclopedia Based in the collaboration of its contributors by means of the Wiki technology, which allows that any person with access to Internet can modify the great majority of 417 thousand articles only in Spanish and million in other nine languages. " The foundation of Wikipedia is thankful for each donation done to the project, is time, money or hardware" , it maintains the message that among others left Wales in the page that arranges donations by credit card, via email or I deposit in a banking account. Although Wikipedia receives donations from December of 2006, after world-wide financial crisis his proprietor decided to place a Link in red that says " donate now " and he informs that he have collected u$s2.790.011 of u$s6 million that have been placed like " Score ". Founds, according to Wales, will be used for " the costs of Wikipedia, in the recognition of its remarkable profit in spreading knowledge and facilitating the acces over the world-wide base”.
