Do Ads and Wikipedia Mix?
It’s interesting to see how people react to the idea of putting ads on Wikipedia. Do corporate sponsorships really tarnish the quality of the content? I wouldn’t think it would necessarily. But the reputation and brand of Wikipedia might be harmed by ads — though I thought Wikipedia already took some corporate funding from Google and some hardware manufacturers. Hmm. I guess it’s really just a philosophical decision for Wales — and a subject to speculate and debate about for everyone else.
