"But whereas one mushroomed into a trillion-dollar company, the other has remained a midsize nonprofit" A midsize nonprofit that works. As it provides the technical foundation of Wikipedias Community - who are the ones to provide the actual value. So everything is pretty much working as is should be. Why on earth would anyone want Wikipedia to be a trillion dollar company? Companies are after profit. Going after profit - and providing information free (and adfree!) to the world are contrary things. So finding ways to generate extra money, while not changing the core - why not. But this sounds a bit too vague - and with potentially lots of money involved - dangerous, when they get dependent on it. Money buys influence. Not something I want in the worlds encyclopedy.
