AFAICT the Panopedia believes very strongly in article ownership; most obviously because as soon as you edit someone else's article, you create a derivative work of it (the original author is allowed to do so because they own full copyright), which violates the CC-BY-ND-2.5 license.
Sounds rather like Everything2, in which individual pieces were copyrighted by the authors with no rights to create derivative works unless specifically authorized.
Ah, I knew that someone /must have/ had the idea before... not knowing enough about E2 I wasn't willing to make such a bold claim :)
