Here's a new job offered on Freelancer.com:
"Description Wikipedia writer needed for historic building/hotel in a major city. The wikipedia page already exist but it is not too detailed to reflect its rich history.

Is this an acceptable project? How should someone who gets this contract handle it?
I'm not sure if I said this before, anyway: I don't see anything wrong with this in principle, but only in principle. If an editor follows all the Wikipedia policies, I see no principal reason to ban him solely because he is getting money for his editing. However, in practice, whenever I see an editor who appears to be financially connected to the articles he is editing, the edits do not follow Wikipedia policies. So, no.
