inclusiveness is vitally important to wikipedia's continued success and i'm glad the author raised that concern, but we should celebrate the mutual aid and solidarity that countless contributors have shown to the world by improving access to knowledge. i donate money and time editing to wikipedia and would (shamelessly) encourage you to do the same. if you have money to donate, i'm willing to bet that you've benefited from wikipedia's breadth and depth at some point, and you can help make the world a better place by enabling others to do the same. if you have expertise to share, people really do benefit from your freely sharing what you know with people. and if you can encourage people whose expertise or backgrounds are under-represented on wikipedia, that would also help to empower even more people to contribute to "the sum of all knowledge".
