> 1. Wikiwix's adds are not likely to be that profitable, given the
popularity of the website. http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/wikiwix.com
2. Wikiwix uses normal google ads, which can be filtered on your computer.
Wikiwix ads surely needs to be improved, given the problem you raised about
explicit ads. Florence Devouard has forwarded these mails to Wikiwix's
author.
3. At the french Wikipedia, we are also using Internet Archive, when
possible. But its use is very impractical. Internet Archive makes backups of
the Internet irregularely and very rarely (every 6 months, or sometimes once
a year...). An incredible amount of websites are missing in Internet
Archive. Most of the archived websites have missing content, broken layout,
etc.
Wikiwix archive on the contrary is dedicated to Wikipedia, and fits our
needs as a web archive.
