"4.B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in the
Modified Version, together with at least five of the principal authors
of the Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than
five), unless they release you from this requirement."
Doesn't any editing say we accept the GNU lisense and that anything
we write will be deleted or edited. That would clearly class as a
release."

Which part of the GFDL do you claim says this?
It would be
impossible to quote every single editor.
The History tab is surely there as a tool against vandalism ON
EXISTING articles. As most editors are anonymous, it is just foolish
to suggest that every editor be credited. Nobody is saying that the
article existed somewhere else or that many editors contributed to it.
They use those article in the sense that "this was on wikipedia" but
no longer. The GNU lisense covers that.
GFDL requires that you credit the authors. If the author choses to be
credited as geni that is their choice.
