On: A Personal Appeal To Wikipedia Founder Jimmy Wales

I disagree. While certainly not an in-depth analysis, it provides a succinct complaint: the left alignment of Wales' mugshot on the donation banner makes it look like Wales is the subject of each article. The article further supports this assertion by including screenshots of a bunch of tweets that say the same thing.

I didn't really find it funny, but it does talk about a real issue for Wikipedia readers. It even suggests an alternative -- right-align the image.

The word succinct means "Briefly and clearly expressed." There's nothing succinct about six screenshots that take half the height of my 15" laptop's screen.

The best part is the twitter quotes in the special frames - how else can we convey and support the idea if not by quoting random strangers from 160 character-limited message service?

Right, it provides a succinct complaint in that mass of silly editorial.
