Citizendium doesn't have to reinvent the wheel, they can just look at wikipedia and see how we handle copyright.
How is it that Wikipedia handles copyright? And are you suggesting that there aren't any copyright violations on Wikipedia?
Citizendium has a firm policy to acknowledge Wikipedia when using text from Wikipedia in an article. In fact, when you edit any page there is a checkbox at the bottom which says that there is text from Wikipedia in the edit, and if you check the checkbox text acknowledging Wikipedia is given.
Not everyone follows these rules, of course. So just like on Wikipedia, there are copyright violations on Citizendium.
