to make money[edit]
It says so on Wikipedia's About page, the volunteers write the articles without pay. Wikipedia isn't a career, it is an extra. People may edit as they please.
In fact, wikipedia NEEDS money, without it, it couldn't be made possible. Of course, all donations are optional, but highly recommended.
