My recommendation for wmf editors who publish the translation from meta to wmf site is using [[meta:special:Import]] for moving the files to wmf site which enables us to preserve the original history, but sometimes it takes a time and I understand not always it hasn't be kept.
Unfortunately, Special:Import usually does not work well for our purposes because we'll always need to rename the page after making it, it's yet another thing to do, it clutters the history page, etc. In the past I've done what Amir's done and did something like a link to the workspace and a link to every author's userpage, but this got to be too much work for too little gain. :-)
In my experience the best way is actually to just do "[[m:PAGENAME YOU GOT IT FROM]]" in the summary and then anyone can reach the workspace/workspace history if they want to make changes or if they want to see who did what.
