I documented the steps to add AdSense to MediaWiki 1.4, as I suspect others will also find this useful. If you're not familiar with it, AdSense pays you ~70% of the click-though revenues Google receives by placing ads on your page.

FYI
Attached is the xhtml_slim.pt file that I use, which includes the Google AdSense code at http://peswiki.com
It was used in MediaWiki 1.3, but preliminary tests show it also works fine in 1.4

I just wanted to take a second and say "thanks!" to the developers who have made this tool possible. Just from my end, it has been tremendously helpful to myself and hundreds of genealogy researchers/historians (probably thousands within a year from now). I know that if it wasn't rewarding in itself, you wouldn't still be working on it, but you have our gratitude, as well.
Among other things, I can stop using my email client as a storage system for random bits of knowledge and put it all on the wiki, even if no one else added material. One of the goals of the website associated with my mailing list was to save knowledge that appeared in the list postings onto a an online encyclopedia (as opposed to searching the archives).
Also, I've strarted using a section as a long term notepad, which I can access whenever the ideas hit, whether I'm at home or work or traveling. That's limited by the security situation, of course, but is nice for collaboration.

Thanks. Does anyone know a way of putting Adsense in the article body, where it will be more visible than on the left column?

I recall that there's an extension which could do this. You can even force certain keywords in it and such. I haven't worked with it though.
