...The title is centered with linked rectangular blocks before and after the title...
In India, I saw an ad which had a symbol in the form of a triangle (like a play button) in the headline of an ad but when i clicked on that ad, it took me to a regular page.
I'll make sure the policy folks are aware of this. Next time you see this, it would be great to send a screen shot to the support team, which will help them to track down the ads in question.
...and google support says 'we don't allow' and that ads sometimes take time to get reviewed. Don't know what Google's upto!
Pretty simple really, resham5. Ads may run for a short time on Google before they are reviewed. Thus, there is the possibility that you'll occasionally see ads that don't meet the Editorial Guidelines - as they have not yet been reviewed. This is done as a courtesy to advertisers, so that their ads may run right away, and is based on trust.
The alternative, of course, is that ads would not allowed to run anywhere at all until they'd been reviewed and approved. I suspect, however, that advertisers would not be best pleased if this change were to be made. ;)
