I haven't researched this at all, but I wonder if this approach might apply to other sites as well.

If we were to have advertising on our site, these are the conditions we'd have to meet:

  • We'd need to control for specific ads. Ours is a neighborhood wiki, so only neighborhood businesses would make sense. And hopefully we could control for shape & resolution of images.
  • We'd want to contribute proceeds to neighborhood charities.
  • I could probably create a custom element to show ads, but I've always assumed it would run afoul of Wikidot's monetization policies, right?

I imagine many wiki-admins have similar conditions. Wikis are about community, and it's harder to nurture that sense of connection while distracted by ads that are mostly tangential to the group's focus.
