Danny Wool mentioned this on his blog today, and I had not noticed it myself
at first--doesn't the current thing we've created, for example, at
http://schools-wikipedia.org/wp/f/F-35_Lightning_II.htm violate GFDL? It
actually says,

"This Wikipedia Selection is sponsored by SOS
Children<http://schools-wikipedia.org/wp/c/Children_Charity.htm>, and
consists of a hand selection from the English Wikipedia articles with
only minor deletions (see www.wikipedia.org for details of authors and
sources)."

But is this compliant with the GFDL?
