@TVthePunisher. I believe that Wikia is trying to use more than just super-narrow ads. Currently, Wikia puts ads in content space. Those ads are too wide for the current sidebar. The new sidebar is slightly wider. I can live with it. I assume the wider sidebar is to accommodate regular ads, and not just super-narrow ones. It is hard to cram an ad into a narrow space. A square is better.

I think the problem is the content space is too narrow for most people. I have 17-inch monitor, and I normally set it at 1152 by 864. The new look has empty space on the outside edges. That is the problem in my opinion.
