The Foundation’s financial statements are online: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Guy_Macon/Wikipedia_has_Cancer#References https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Guy_Macon/Wikipedia_has_C...
- elect_engineer 9y agoI am the author of the Wikipedia essay "Wikipedia has Cancer". I have included links to all of the financials that I could find in my essay, and I have repeatedly asked for more transparency regarding how the money has been spent. Just to take one example, Sue Gardner, Wikimedia Foundation executive director from 2007 to 2014, received $100,000 pay rise and was secretly kept on as a "special advisor" after we were all told that she stepped down in 2014. This was kept secret for years, until it turned up buried in a required financial disclosure. I also would like a breakdown of where the money has gone and realistic projections of futures expenses. What you see is my best effort to provide that. If anyone has more information, I will be glad to add it to my essay.
