Wikipedia now accepts BTC donations. Let's turn our attention away from celestial bodies and shady wikies, and launch a rocket that will land on Scholarpedia. See http://www.scholarpedia.org

It is only now I realize that the text The Six Sins of Wikipedia was written by Dr. Sam Vaknin, a genius whose work is so important, that I will definitely try to present it here later.

In relation to Wikipedia, scholars face the same predicament as Feathercoin does in relation to Bitcoin: rejection. There are more similarities between us: Bitcoin was introduced by pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, while our Feathecoin has an accountable BDFL and a community consisting of people known under their real names. We will donate to Scholarpedia and we will ask them to accept donations in Feathercoin. We hope to raise awareness of Feathercoin among scholars while the price remains low.

The spaceship has 20 positions to Scholarpedia, 500 FTC each. With Calem's permission, I am allowed to hold the bounty wallet.

The donation address (held by Calem) is:

First come, first served. There will be no second ship.

I will immediately attempt a preliminary contact with Dr. Izhikievich, a neuroscientist and a technological enterpreneur (trying to make a Terminator CPU, how original) who runs the famous wiki. If I can fill 20 positions in reasonable time (about 2 or 3 weeks), I will take it as a sign of community support and I will propose to Dr. Izhikievich a mutual exclusive support relationship between Scholarpedia and Feathercoin brands. I will also ask him to tentatively consider the possibility of using Feathercoin as a reward currency within the Scholarpedia curation system (in place of the points they use today).

If the mission succeeds, there can be no refunds. If I cannot fill 20 positions in reasonable time (~ 2 or 3 weeks), I will forward the task of negotiating, at his own will, with Dr. Izhikievich to Bush. If this is rejected, or if the mission fails for any reason, donations will be refunded in full.

You are encouraged to donate more than FTC 500 to Scholarpedia, but please postpone your donation portion over 500 to such time, when Scholarpedia displays a link to its Feathercoin donation wallet on its main page.
