The point of free content is that content incorporated from other sources is not different than content written directly for our project.
Not really, no :)
The point of free content is to allow people ([1]): * to use the content and benefit from using it, * to study the content and apply what is learned, * to make and distribute copies of the content, * to change and improve the content and distribute these derivative works.
It doesn't say anything about disclaimers...
I think of disclaimers as being similar to the GFDL requirement to attach a copy of the license to the work. Annoying, but if the benefits exceed the cost, why not?
Each source of content should ideally be credited in a similar way, whether the source is another free-content project or a local editor.
Agreed, but we don't live in an ideal world. Having an extension would allow the same data to be rendered in different ways, depending on the community consensus of the moment.
but the idea of adding a disclaimer to the article itself seems to differ from usual practice which is just to list the source.
At the English Wikipedia you might get way with not using free text with disclaimers because you have tons of free content in English and lots of contributors to rephrase non-free content; unfortunately, I feel this does not work for smaller languages.

I think that if going with an extension for that, it should be a bit more structurate.
Would you be able to come up with a proposal please?
They can probably look like beig outside with the proper CSS.
Hmm... I'll try that. Mind if I poke you some time for advice?
