Hi
I was using the WDSCi wiki Tips and I noticed certain words
colored orange that act as links to other web sites that are
unrelated to the wiki text.
I am curious, is this some sort of revenue raising advertising
or is the Wiki being hijacked in some manner.
If the latter what can or should be done about the links.
eg. the words 'mailing list' take you to a site that sells
PC Mailing list software.
