We could, but it would likely cost more to hire people to do that than
those sites would bring in. I'm very doubtful that volunteers would
want to handle ad sales. Ad sales staff are extremely expensive and I
don't think the traffic to our wikis in Serbia etc justify that cost,
particularly when it's not necessary if ads on the English Wikipedia
alone would bring in enough money to meet the current budget.
