I don't agree. By definition BJAODN are bad jokes and nonsense. Not
serious contributions to Wikipedia. Not contributions whose owners are
going to care rat's arse about what happens to them. There is no sense
in spending any time worryng aobut what whether copying "JOSH IS GAY
FNORD FNORD" without correct attribution violates GFDL or not. The day
that someone shows up claiming that we're violating their copyright by
keeping their contribution without correct attribution is the day we
should worry about it.

Remember that the content reuse argument doesn't apply: the Wikipedia
namespace is not reused by other sites.
