Description angelofvic 2008-11-05 02:10:08 UTC The new "Donate Now" banner ad (whether minimized or not) is making access to Wikipedia impossibly slow, to the point of timing-out, even. This never happened before the banner ad was installed. Please fix. Thanks in advance. Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2009-03-30 22:15:41 UTC Seems to have worked for everyone else. Comment 2 angelofvic 2009-03-30 22:24:42 UTC Wow -- you are only getting around to commenting on this 4 months later? it was fixed within a week. ~~~~
