Regarding this - I'm not sure this is technically correct. An explicit
license to Wikipedia to use content for the purposes of publication on
Wikipedia is restrictive to the point that an EDP would absolutely be
required. Content must be free for republication for any reason,
including commercial use (in the absence of an EDP, and even with an
EDP non-free content is only allowed if there is no free alternative).
