It's not a bad idea at all... but it would most likely take some of bitcoin players to contribute to this. Let's say one of the exchanges waives all fees to convert the donated coins to USD for them then it's something that would get them press and allow for wikipedia to collect USD from bitcoins.

I'd be willing to make it easier for them to get donations... flexcoin id : wikipedia for example

but the converting to USD has to be though an exchange.

Or side-step the whole exchange hoopla and make it easier to donate using bit pay.

Basically, I was seeing them (Bitcoin/Bit-Pay) working in concert together to make this a most viable option. I kinda forgot about the donation banner being splashed on every page. I like the sound of that word: splash. You can almost hear the sound of a bitcoin hitting the water of a virtual wishing well.
