維基百科正設法將捐贈頁台灣名稱更正為Taiwan

Wikipedia 最近狂募捐, 本來我是很想捐, 畢竟這是除了google外我第2常用的網站,
按下 Donate by credit card,  一路點到country 欄, 看到"Taiwan, Province of China" 就覺得不舒服,

話說捐錢只有一個原則: "切勿做不樂之捐", 想想這個不改掉以前, 我很難甘願把信用卡號碼填上去.

當下寫了封鳥鳥的破英文去反應, 過了三天, Yeah! 有回應喔.

Dear Tim,

Thank you for your email and for letting us know about this issue. We are
definitely working on resolving it. I've already requested that it be changed from
"Taiwan, Province of China" to simply "Taiwan." Thanks again for your support.

Sincerely,

Anya

Good. They already fixed it.

感謝您到我那邊的留言,與實際行動

剛看也是改成Taiwan了

(不過若以繁中語系進入捐款頁面的話,預設貨幣找不到我們的。或許是沒跟台灣的銀行有所聯繫?)
