And I don't think Wikipedia being "closed source" (say there were no db dumps, contributors retained full copyright over contributions, and there was no GFDL in play) would radically alter anything.
For the most part, contributors still /do/ retain fully copyright; but if you made it "one author per article" we'd become E2.
I guess "contributors retain full rights over contributions" was what I meant. Is that more accurate?
