Another chance to upvote the donation link to top thread on an IA story since a direct submission got swallowed by the dupe detector! They are doing such much amazing things.

https://archive.org/donate

Your Donation Will Be Matched 2-to-1! [...] Right now, we have a 2-to-1 Matching Gift Campaign, tripling the impact of every donation. (from the home page)

Same. Oh hey these scammers are asking for money again? Wait, I haven’t given to IA in a while.

Haha, i know what you mean...my mind works the same way ;)

Is this so Wikipedia can be archived by the IA?

I always take the wikipedia donation drive as a reminder to donate to archive.org instead.

It's a joke. Hacker News doesn't like donating to Wikipedia; many choose to donate to Internet Archive instead.

HN doesn't mind donating to Wikipedia, they dislike donating to Wikimedia. That one letter is a big difference.

Is there really a way to donate specifically to Wikipedia? I've never seen it in any of the many, many threads.

As far as I know there isn't... that's the problem.
