The main value of wikipedia has been provided not by the wikipedia foundation, but by the volunteers who write the articles on wikipedia.
My work on wikipedia articles is for the benefit of my fellow humans, not to allow some organisation to start implying that everyone has a moral obligation to give them money. That was never part of the deal when I contributed my work.
