User blog comment:Tedgill/Making Ads Better: How We're Going to Do It/@comment-11515627-20170122234115

Wikia seems hard set on their direct ad thing which is less "high impact" and more "high irritation" making me dislike whatever's being advertised anyway. I mean, at least try to make it look like an ad and not like a completely different website that I was accidentally taken to. That's my main problem. I don't want my visitors thinking they're at the wrong place when "No Man's Sky" composes 50% of the content and site design, when they thought they were going to be taken to the wiki. I'd rather my wiki not share a home page for www.no-mans-sky.com

About the idea of contributors/regular visitors seeing less ads and/or getting a paid ad-free subscription: I really don't care what I see. I can deal with ads, adblockers or not. I'm more concerned with whether the readers of the site are confused about the scope or nature of the site. I don't want to direct fans of the series in question from a subreddit to a Wikia site, then have them go to some weird page with half of it seemingly focusing on No Man's Sky and the other half Jak and Daxter, for example.
