As soon as you add a link to an existing article you are more likely
to be noticed by a wikipedian who knows the area. Ever look at how

Just because someone is acting in good faith it doesn't mean that they
are doing something that we want them to do. There are various tricks
(marketers appear to be rather found of our no comercial use lisence
option on images for example) which could be used to target marketers
but then it gets complex.
