Compensating for PayPal fees
I've made an executive decision to start deducting PayPal surcharges from transactions. I've been floating the wiki cents on the dollar from my own pocket in order to keep those surcharges transparent, but I just started thinking about the surcharges that will acrue on $1,000 worth of donations. I'm not sure I want to float the wiki that much. :) — Joey (talk·edits) 12:00, 8 Mar 2005 (MST)
Okay, I just made the changes. I let everything slide prior to March 1, 2005, but from now on each donation posted on the ledger will reflect the 2.7% plus US$0.30 surcharge from PayPal. In case anyone is paying extremely close attention, there was one transaction that I had mistakenly dated March 8, 2005 that should've been dated March 7, 2005. I moved it and recalculated the running balance for each of those rows. — Joey (talk·edits) 12:24, 8 Mar 2005 (MST)
New Ledger
The old ledger was getting a bit unweildy, so I'm now using Excel to manage things. I'm using the excellent CSV to wiki table converter (I've installed a tweaked ledger converter on our server) to transfer my spreadsheet data to the wiki. I've also started attributing names to donations again. As this list starts to get too long, I'll probably archive it off onto other pages by year or by quarter. — Joey (talk·edits) 11:35, 9 Mar 2005 (MST)
