I also wish the Wikimedia Foundation would do something about these books.
Here is one by me, or by Wikipedia, but NOT by Frederic P. Miller, Agnes F. Vandome (Editor), and John McBrewster (Editor). http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/marshalsea-frederic-p-miller/1028062431?ean=...
The byline apart, it's disturbing that someone might be conned into paying $77 for it, when they can download it for free.

I think anybody can sell well organized ebook on commercially. But the author is not the Wimedia Foundation exactly. I think the seller eM publication's business is illegitimate. It is a trademark infringement if the foundation did not permit the use.

Hi, all!
I searched "Wikimedia Foundation" by chance and a lot of Wikibooks, possibly collections of Wikipedia articles. The author of the books is "Wikimedia Foundation." I don't think Wikimedia Foundation is selling the e-books for 2~3 dollars, and I think it is a fraud. Many buyer commented that they want their money back.
I think the Foundation needs to find out the case and alert the bookshop.
