I've got a funny feeling they won't want to make that donation. They
got free advertising because they were sneaky and no one was watching
the page closely (surprises), not because they bought a #2 google
ranking. With the ability to edit articles comes great
responsibility....

Hmmm, advertising in Wikipedia?
Just now, I came a across a 5-minute promotional video listed as "Fair Use"
embedded in an article. The article was Chicago Spire, a new building planned
for Chicago, and the video was by the architectural firm that is planning
the building (scheduled for completion in 2010). For the record, it has been
there since October 11. Oh, you might also note that the relevant article is
the number 2 Google hit for the building.
As for my insane suggestion, send the company a bill for one and a half
months of free Internet advertising. That should help with the fundraiser a bit.
