Thank you for your advice.
I would like to clarify more.
Could you please see this page as a example.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/8298063.stm
This page includes single article and "Ads by Google" below it.
I think that <article> is appropriate for the article, if this page would be change to HTML5.
Should "Ads by Google" be outside of <article> for the article?
In this case, is "Ads by Google" related to the article or the page or the site?
