This is related to a banned editor [[User:Andries]] claiming in Citizendium that as the main contributor to an article, if he removes the contributions of others from that article, he can than re-post that content in CZ without giving credit to Wikipedia.
My comment: Articles posted in Wikipedia are licensed under the GFDL and need to be attributed to Wikipedia, regardless of how many editors contributed to these articles. Jossi 12:44, 13 April 2007 (CDT)
Larry Sanger's response:
Your opinion is incorrect, Jossi. If a person contributed a piece of content to WP, that person may contribute the same content to CZ under CZ's terms. According to WP itself, contributors to WP are the ones who license their edits; they do not donate their copyrights to WP. In this case, since Andries presumably still has copyright in the content he created and contributed to WP, he may contribute the same material to CZ.
This said, we ought to investigate Andries' claim and ensure that in fact he really is the only [contributor to the material that he has transferred here. See [1]; on the strength of that, I am checking the "Content is from Wikipedia?" box. --Larry Sanger 14:03, 13 April 2007 (CDT)

Is this the case? Are editors "licensing their edits to WP and retaining copyright"?
