"HMRC had denied charitable tax status to Wikimedia UK, which runs the
Wikipedia UK website, stating that production of an encyclopaedia is
not a charitable purpose."

They're not even trying... "the Wikipedia UK" website?

Good quotes from Andrew though - well done!

I thought we spoke to the WMF ages ago (in fact, I think I did it) and
they didn't know any useful lawyers, so where did that bit come from?
