[Foundation-l] Baidupedia copyvio collections

[effe iets anders]

Just a weird question maybe, but has it been tried to just write them
a letter and ask to remove the content? Please note that WMF is nto
the author of the content, and does not own the content. individual
authors such as yourself could of course. Therefore i doubt she could
enforce the GFDL requirements. Or are you suggestion rather press/pr
action?

Best regards,

Lodewijk
