It is mostly a trade mark violation, with only minor copyright problems.
They don't need to mention Wikipedia anywhere. They just need to mention five authors, except if the authors don't require that (which is the case of most Wikipedia authors, i.e. anonymous users).
However, I looked at their site and I think that somebody could confuse it for the real Wikipedia. This may create trade mark confusion, especially if they have a high Google pagerank.
