The issue is that this private company has a button at the side of every page on one of the most popular sites on the Web. If I were to set up Virgin Ventures to write high-quality, policy-compliant articles for companies and people that needed them -- benefiting the subjects, the readers, and Wikipedia -- might I be given a button in the toolbox too? "Red link? Click here for the Virgin!" I would promise to give Wikimedia 50 percent of the profits. I hope you'll consider this generous offer.
