https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Comm ... user_pagesHaving a tip jar on user pages
Any thoughts on whether as a community we would allow adding a 'tip jar' to a user page?
Though I've had some support and the odd donation over the years towards hardware, the vast majority of my projects have had nil funding and ongoing costs of bandwidth, some software, and wear and tear (on memory and drives) have never been factored in. It would not count as spam, so I think this would be allowable under the WMF terms of use (happy to be corrected) and I could declare any donations via this route if folx wanted transparency and if there were any to declare! Maybe if we do allow it, we might want to define in what circumstances/projects/types of users where it would be valid. --Fæ (talk) 17:26, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
It's a pretty good crowd for a saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say man what are you doin' here?

Apparently my comments, which he clearly reads regularly, are super scary and commons should somehow get me fired from the oversight team on en.wp. Good luck with that Fae, enjoy your continued lurking here. 
Just so we're clear, we all already know you lurk here, you've made that exceedingly obvious many times, so this isn't the "gotcha" you imagine it is.
