Imho, thats different than having it in the wiki near a howto or some such.

And I also agree with a link to your homepage, or your business, on your user 
page.  I have no problem there.  However, articles on the wiki should not 
have any form of advertising anywhere except for SUSE. 

I have no problem with people making money off Linux, or even more 
specifically, SUSE.  I have no problem with people performing a service and 
getting paid for it.  I have no problem with it being acknowledged.  I only 
have a problem with something being placed inappropriately within a regular 
article.
