we halfway or more into the campaign?

Over the last year or so Wikimedia UK has run or supported events across the
country, but there are huge areas of the UK where we don't yet have any
presence, so I created this page on the WMUK wiki to demonstrate where there
have been events and where there haven't and so we can discuss ideas f

No, we are slightly less than 1/3 the way through the campaign; sheet 3 of
this Google doc covers that.

I was fairly sceptical about the text giving when it was first
suggested, but I'm delighted that there are no hidden costs. Great
work Chris. Definitely worth the work on a banner, many of our mobile
addicted readers would think that sending a text is easier than
filling out the online form.

Yes it looking pretty good, the whole fundraiser has started off well, am I
right in thinking that with this amount raised so far we are heading to
increase our proportion of total funds raised by the movement? I.E. Are we
outperforming the global campaign?

Difficult to tell, I'm afraid.
I just donated a pound to test it and it didn't ask me about Gift Aid, I just
got a donation reference.

A box to tick that says "I'd like to add Gift Aid" followed by the small print
might increase donations, but Gif Aid itself is a little fiddly because you
have to fill in your name and address and confirm you understand the small
print.
It might also be worth making the link to "other ways to g
I'm amazed it's actually free - Just Giving take a hefty cut of donations
(6% IIRC) as well as charging charities a monthly fee. Which is why I won't

All,
This may seem like a bit of an odd question, but I've recently been in touch
with a gentleman who owns a coach/bus firm. His firm own rather a lot of
very high quality coaches and tour busses, the sort used by VIPs and rock
