This is also the official general rule now thanks to
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Terms_of_Use : «Where such credit is
commonly given through page histories (such as Wikimedia-internal
copying), it is sufficient to give attribution in the edit summary,
which is recorded in the page history, when importing the text»[1].
This applies to all Wikimedia translations (e.g. from a Wikipedia to
another one).

page (by default).
