Let me quote User:Dgrant "if the link text says GFDL, few people will bother going to it, at least I personally wouldn't, I've already read the GFDL before." He has a point, the notice is misleading in it's current form, and I think people are discouraged from reading the Copyright page b/c the link is titled "GFDL."
That sounds reasonable. Unless there's a huge objection I'll make the change tomorrow.
As a reminder for those listening in, the suggested new version of the notice reads:
"All text is available under the terms of the [[Wikipedia:Text of the GNU Free Documentation License| GNU Free Documentation License]]. See [[Wikipedia:Copyrights]] for suggested practices."
thus giving explicitly separate links for the license text and our explanation of what it means and how it applies.
(It's still got the "text" problem, but that's a separate can of worms.)
