I read both articles and don't understand why wikipedia would ever have to sell. Would they really go bankrupt before putting in ads on the sidebar? I'm sure they understand the only reason another company would buy them is to monetize and they have the potential to very easily do that themselves (even though it's against their values). The only way I see wikipedia's downfall is if they make a lot of "unethical" choices over and over (e.g. allowing companies exclusive access to their articles, paid removal of articles, banning users because their articles don't reflect paid advertisers' ideas, etc)
