I disagree with this: we are here to provide information as an encyclopedia, not to serve as a source for others to copy (Commons, on the other hand, is and example of just such a source). Our purpose is to provide the best freely distributable content. Those who may wish to repurpose it have our permission, but there is no need for us to guarantee the origins of the material. A encyclopedia of that sort exists-- the de WP. They do it one way, and the en WP can do it another.
Yes, i am saying we should rethink our interpretation, and make full use of whatever material we legally can under copyright law where we operate.
