Guidelines
While Joe has say, we can publicly say what type of ads we encourage to show and maybe put up the types of ads that would get accepted if there is any dispute of people submitting ads to Joe via AdBrite and the like. Shane (T - C - E) 16:40, 19 January 2007 (CST)
- Obviously, we would like to be specific as possible, given that we should list what kind of ads are not permitted, as ads that we would permit are more numerous in quantity. The list is below. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 19:47, 19 January 2007 (CST)
List of ads we don't want
The following is a list of ads we won't approve on the wiki:
- Pornographic ads
- Ads to hate or defamation sites
- Ads promoting illegal activities (illegal downloading, etc.)
- Ads promoting or actively supporting any of the above
- Links to photo galleries of any type
- Social and users pages, such as MySpace, Facebook, and Yahoo!
Thoughts? -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 19:47, 19 January 2007 (CST)
- Sounds agreeable to me. --Spencerian 23:29, 19 January 2007 (CST)
Not sure if AdBrite even has them, but I'm also against blinking .gif files and the like. The list looks good --Serenity 06:10, 20 January 2007 (CST)
- AdBrite can have those, but i belive Joe has it set to display only text based advertisements? --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 09:58, 24 January 2007 (CST)
- Right now, I actually don't. I'm really waiting to hear back from Kevin to see what kind of ads his customers have in mind. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 20:48, 30 January 2007 (CST)
Any chance we could add SystemDoctor-style misleading ads to this list? They're both misleading (they tell you there are errors in your Registry, even when, like me, you run Linux and therefore don't have a Registry) and obtrusive (resizing browser to minuscule proportions, overwriting the tab I intended to use for a BSWiki page with a SystemDoctor ad). --Catrope(Talk to me or e-mail me) 08:29, 19 April 2007 (CDT)
