Wikimedia recently announced Wikimedia Enterprise for "organizations that want to repurpose Wikimedia content in other contexts, providing data services at a large scale".

So they're pretty clearly looking to monetize organizations which consume their data in a for-profit context.

monetizing != for-profit

You could e.g. just cover operational cost and/or improve the service quality from it.

I think they may have meant "(organizations) (which consume their data in a for-profit context)."
