The image is a screenshot from a YouTube video titled "Wikipedia Donations Exposed. The Truth." It features a donation pop-up from Wikipedia, addressing a user in the UK. The pop-up message is prominently displayed with a red header stating, "We ask you, humbly: don't scroll away." The message appeals to the reader, noting this is the fourth appeal they've seen, and emphasizes the importance of donations for Wikipedia's continued operation. It mentions that fewer than 2% of readers donate and encourages a contribution of £2 or any amount. Below the message, there are icons for various payment methods, including credit cards and PayPal, signaling options for making a donation. The video, "The Wikipedia Controversy," covers the topic of Wikipedia's fundraising strategies, as suggested by the highlighted text in the subtitles, which discusses ethical aspects of donation requests. The interface is clear and direct, with a focus on the donation message, while subtitles at the bottom add context to the video's narrative. The overall tone of the pop-up is urgent yet polite, aiming to strike a balance between being persuasive and respectful. - Title: "Wikipedia Donations Exposed. The Truth." - Captions / subtitles: "dire-looking pop-ups, it would be far more ethical"
