Which is fine because the notice when you edit a page says:

"You agree that a hyperlink or URL is sufficient attribution under the
Creative Commons license."

So linking to the article is providing attribution "in the manner they specify".

I can't see any similar notice on Wikitravel. I definitely can't see
anything saying you are licensing it with a requirement to attribute
to Wikitravel.
