[edit] A better way to link to PayPal
There is a way to set up a form that will donate straight to your PayPal account. Why are you making it so difficult to donate? Oh I see, you have to visit the donations page! Well then this line needs to change:
From: "To make a donation, please utilize our donations page or send a PayPal payment directly to donations@hrwiki.org."
To: "To make a donation, please utilize our donations page or send a PayPal payment directly to donations@hrwiki.org."

- Hmm... I'm not sure removing options for people is the way to go... (even if two of the options are ultimately the same...) – maybe copying the link from HRWiki:Donations over to this page would be a good idea? --phlip TC 10:40, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- I've copied the donation information from the donations page directly to this page. This violates once and only once, but makes things more convenient. Is there a better way we could do this and avoid once and only once? Should we move all this fundraiser stuff directly to the donations page and link there from the sitenotice? Then remove all the fundraiser stuff at the end of the drive? How else could we do it? —

- OAOO violations are generally only a problem if the info ever changes, since all the places that have the info would need to be kept up-to-date... since the PayPal info is unlikely to change, and this page is only going to last until the fundraiser's over anyway, I don't think OAOO matters much here. --phlip TC 23:37, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Canadian currency?
If you're Canadian, how do you donate American? Don't say jorb 101

[edit] O DER
We've only got HALF of what we need!! We're DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooomed! --Homestar tiger
- Just a heads up: This isn't the fanstuff. Second, it's not even Spring yet. We've got plenty of time.
