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.
