https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#Review_of_English_Wikimedia_fundraising_emails https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(propos...
Below the emails and the discussion is an RfC, a straw poll of Wikipedia volunteers:

Current status is that
– 1 Wikipedian endorses the emails,
– 33 Wikipedians object to the emails,
– 5 express mixed feelings.
Objections are typically based on the perception that the emails mislead donors as to the current financial status of the Wikimedia Foundation; it has hundreds of millions in assets and reserves:
