To be honest, it's this aspect and its various implications that worries
me the most.

Let's say McDonald's pays us $500,000 to put an ad on [[Fast food]]. Is
that compliant with [[WP:NPOV]]?

What happens if McDonald's will pay us $500,000 to put an ad on [[Fast
food]], but only if we nix the 'Nutritional value' section?

Cheers,

N.
