By the way, our free licenses also need to show the text authors.

people re-use the contents and link to the Wikipedia page. As far as I
know,
no history is available now at Italian Wikipedia to look up.

If that were really an issue, Articles would never be allowed to be deleted. An example:
http://unicornbacon.com/blog/2007/05/06/weird-wiki-markovian-parallax-denigr... from Wikipedia,
with a link to the article on EnWp: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markovian_parallax_denigrate The article has since been deleted via AfD - so all re-use of that article that
existed
prior to deletion now has broken attribution.
Of course, I'm not sure if WMF has really looked in-depth at this, from a legal angle.
This actually came up recently on English Wikipedia relating to someone mirroring deleted articles. I think the conclusion was that they did need to list the contributors somehow to comply with the license.
