I'm not sure I understand what the problem is here. A book has been
published about how to contribute to Wikipedia and some are worrying
about whether we should threaten them for using "Wikipedia" in the
title?

Such a book could only help Wikipedia. Firefox became too concerned
with their name and it's usage, and people stopped using it (Debian) -
who does that help?
