Once again, I must assert, I am not looking to debate weather or not advertising (i.e. consumerism) is something the wikipedia wants to be associated with (or it's users). I was just suggesting ways of implementing advertising if need be. There is no need to argue about weather or not we should have advertisements, b/c when it comes down to it, it really isn't our decision. However, I think we can help control the way such advertising is implemented, by coming up with the best solution for the wikipedia. This too is in the end out of our control, but I still think it is worth while to talk about.
