Due to Wikimedia corruption and Mediawiki deficiencies (likely related) the Wikimedia usurpers do not recognize this legal requirement but instead rely on their GodKing's assertion that "everything is ok" and no legal trouble will result. That GodKing is not a lawyer, however, so this belief in his opinion is only groupthink, and probably quite dangerous.
- Wikipedia complies with the attribution to five or more authors by offering the full history of the page. IANAL, though. --Juxo 10:52, 17 Jun 2004 (EEST)
- No, they don't export that full history via the XML, so, anyone who picks it up cannot share-alike the material without being subject to attacks from Wikimedia. Also they don't show the five authors in the printable version.
