This service is in preliminary stages, but talks of using it for advertising space have been made.

Wikipedia # 3

One of the wikipedia articles I have chosen to edit is on the concert documentary "The Last Waltz." The Last Waltz features the last concert by the band "The Band." It features many musicians including Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Muddy Waters, along with many more. The Wikipedia article explaining this documentary is very in-depth. There is a section on critical aclaim of the documentary, and I added a small part from the Rotten Tomatoes website.
