I'm not a lwayer but doesn't the sentence before you agree to the GFDL
say
that other editors will rip your contributions apart mercilessly? (or
words
to that effect - "If you don't want your writing to be edited
mercilessly or
redistributed for profit by others, do not submit it.") I am quite sure
that
that is a shorthand definition of GFDL!
That's not intended to be explaining the GFDL! It's a statement of general editorial philosophy which just so happens to be one allowed by the license, or rather, that the license was chosen to allow. :-)

ok, thats not our (WP) free for all? So editorial philosophy can actually overide any editors desire to submit under a license which gives him more rights than what we will do (speedy delete, PROD)?
I'm not sure how you got any of that out of what I said. (And I'm not certain that I understand what you mean.)
