Relationship with Wikipedia in Disputes Section

The "Relationship with Wikipedia" subsection in the Disputes Section is a critique from the Telegraph about how Jimmy Wales was wrong to say that Wikipedia is not for sale as his Wikimedia Foundation doesn't control the communities that use the site. Would this mean that those who edit Wikipedia could theoretically propose to make it private? I doubt this is the case. If this isn't the case, this critique should probably be deleted. ✨ΩmegaMantis✨blather 23:10, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

Removed. The content was just incoherent. —Alalch E. 02:30, 6 February 2025 (UTC)

Wikimedia Space?

Hi, In my opinion there ought to be a mention of https://space.wmflabs.org/ because it is a significant WMF production? Victor Grigas (talk) 18:05, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

"Knowledge equity grants"

Where is the dispute? Trade (talk) 06:41, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

I second this inquiry. I see no reason this should be listed under the "Disputes" section. AshVPW (talk) 19:53, 8 April 2025 (UTC)

Wikipedia now eighth (not seventh) most visited website

In the first paragraph, it claims that Wikipedia is the seventh most visited website. However, according to the source used in the original article, Wikipedia is now #8 on that list, as Chat GPT has succeeded it. EverettRichards (talk) 15:20, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Write endowment in one line only, not two line

Regarding the highlighted inconsistency among articles, there should be a revamp in which the sentence will be inputed as a line only. And more importantly, show the newest statistics as of 2025, not 2023 or earlier. 14.176.186.71 (talk) 03:13, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

Did you mean an edit request? Worgisbor (congregate) 15:44, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
@Worgisbor: FYI, user pings (in their various template forms) don't work for IPs, at least it won't notify them - RichT|C|E-Mail 19:23, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
Talkback it is then. Worgisbor (congregate) 19:25, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
Yes! 14.243.22.42 (talk) 02:10, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

kindly change the endowment section to one line only per consistency among other articles like Wikipedia and so on depicting the newest statistics as of 2025. 14.243.22.42 (talk) 02:12, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

That section is four well-sourced paragraphs. How exactly would you reduce it to one line? Please restate your request more specifically, in the form "change X to Y". ~Anachronist (talk) 03:58, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

https://diff.wikimedia.org/2024/11/07/highlights-from-the-fiscal-year-2023-2024-wikimedia-foundation-and-wikimedia-endowment-audit-reports/ is a way to check the endowment in the endowment section in the infobox. Hope you repair the current statistics to the newest ones in the endowment section in the infobox. Thanks anyway! It may take a while to search, but with your dedicated patience, you will soon achieve it!14.185.37.16 (talk) 10:39, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

  Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. M.Bitton (talk) 00:43, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
