Wikia wants users to only see good quality advertisements, and thus we have a system for reporting "bad" ads, as shown below.
Bad ads might include, but are not limited to:
* Inappropriate for your wiki (e.g. dating ads on a wiki aimed at children).
* With regards to gaming wikis, ads about exploits and cheating may be considered.
* Ads that move rapidly and continuously, flash in bright colors, or otherwise disrupt the senses so as to make the article on which it is embedded difficult to read.
* Broken ads - for example, ads that are sized incorrectly and/or overlapping content.
Please note that advertisement removal requests are considered on a case by case basis and while all complaints will be accepted, not all ads can be removed.
== How can I report a bad advertisement ==
=== For Google Text advertisements ===
Each ad has a small URL below it, this is the address that's needed. See the image at the right for an example.
Collect the data into an e-mail and send it to community@wikia.com and your removal request will be evaluated.
=== Other ads ===
==== Firefox instructions ====
# Right click on the ad
# If the Element Properties box appears then copy the URL shown for "Image Properties - Location:". It's probably a very long URL so be sure to copy the whole line.
# If a Flash player menu appears (which is likely for animated ads)
#* Ignore the Flash menu
#* On the Firefox toolbar, click "Tools" => "Page Info"
#* Select the "Media" tab from the Page Info pop-up
#* Look through the list of address for a very long URL, its probably the longest URL in the list
#* Copy that URL
# Note the URL of the wiki where the ad was spotted and the size of the ad
# If convenient, send a screenshot of the ad as well
# Collect the above data into an e-mail and send it to community@wikia.com and your removal request will be evaluated.
==== Internet Explorer instructions ====
# Right click on the ad
# Click properties
# Copy ad URL. Hint: You can click on the URL and press "CTRL-A" to get the whole thing at once
# Note the URL of the wiki where the ad was spotted and the size of the ad
# If convenient, send a screenshot of the ad as well
# Collect the above data into an e-mail and send it to community@wikia.com and your removal request will be evaluated.
==== Opera 10 Instructions ====
First, try right-clicking on the ad, and choosing "Copy image address" from the context menu. If that doesn't work:
# Open Dragonfly (click Tools->Advanced->Developer Tools)
# When Dragonfly has loaded, you should see boxes around each element you hover your cursor over
# Click on the ad to jump to the markup for it in Dragonfly
# Copy the address.
Then:
# Note the URL of the wiki where the ad was spotted and the size of the ad
# If convenient, send a screenshot of the ad as well
# Collect the above data into an e-mail and send it to community@wikia.com and your removal request will be evaluated.
Remember, all advertisement removal requests are considered on a case by case basis and while all complaints will be accepted, not all can be removed.
