I used to think, rather naively, that the q/a of the community and algorithms would be enough filter the crap from the good stuff. The past few months have been an eye opener. Normal search engines seem to be handling it well enough, albeit not perfectly. Regardless of intention, if the community is served by marketers creating content, then I say full steam ahead.

With enough continuing innovation, I suspect that if things got too competitive you would move along to the next avenue, so as to avoid having to be "ugly". Others who stick around just get more and more obvious as the bar is raised. There can only be so many "subtle" commercial wiki links, right? But if there is one there needs to be another from the competitor, and another... I completely agree with the idea of long term utilization, but I'm not sure these channels have much of a future.
