I concur with Matt on this. Further, there would be a genuine impact on our NPOV philosophy. I use Gmail with Google ads for this list. It is often stunning what ads get pulled up when we are talking about content in a thread. There is one thread going on right now where the ads coming up are all about pseudosciences. Imagine having the evolution article linked to ads for scientific creationism. Not a pretty sight.
