I was under the impression that the WMF does hold
a copyright over the
entirety of a particular Wikipedia as they offer that collection for
download. And re-users often use these dumps as seeds for their "illegal"
re-use.
IANAL, but I think you need to have had a creative input in the work
to hold a copyright to it, what creative input has WMF had is
combining all the articles into one dump?
