And how did you expect billing to work when you'd do something and then someone else reverts it or deletes it? Would you keep the customer's money, refund it, or keep trying futily so it turns out not to be worth your time.
As I've noted elsewhere, the better (and more evil) business model is to offer a service to companies (large ones) who already
have a page, saying, in essence:

"for $50/$500/$5000 per month, I will employ my army of sockpuppets (with well-honed Wikipedia pedigrees) to relentlessly remove anything negative from your page, smooth over your peccadillos, and generally make your sh*t not stink, in protection againt the (pick one) a) moronic teenagers; b ) competitors and rivals; c) disgruntled employees; or (d) genuinely outraged shareholders who want to make you look like evildoers".
This could be a great business, because it self-sustains as long as Wikipedia continues to suck!
