Making Wikipedia editors for the entire contents of any article they
edit would be a major, unwelcome change IMHO. Not just on the fair use
side, but even implying that editors have necessarily read, let alone
approved an entire article is unreasonable, when they may just be
adding an interwiki link or fixing some spelling, for example.
