Bizarre indeed! I wonder what warrants an article being stored on their
site. I also wonder why google has rated my white board #1? Maybe it
is b/c of the large number of links? Anyhow, it appears that
www.4reference.net is a much bigger culprit, than
Malaspina.com, as far
as not including the GFDL. I think we need to copy
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:MyRedDice/Abacci_Letter to a generic
GFDL letter page, and also create a page to archive all of the sites
which have used wikipedia as a source, so that we can one day harvest
them for more information (since any article which was contributed to by
wikipedia is perpetually required to use the GFDL).
Actually, I will create these two pages right now, and list them on the
Village Pump. Where do you suppose these 2 pages should be listed in
addition?
The 2 new pages:
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Standard_GFDL_violation_letter
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sites_that_use_Wikipedia_as_a_so

www.4reference.net
While we're talking about the GFDL,
www.4reference.net seems to have
a lot of Wikipedia stuff online. Bizarrely, most of it is non-article
space stuff like user pages, though some pages are real articles.
Anyway, their pages don't seem to mention the license either. e.g:
http://www.4reference.net/encyclopedias/wikipedia/HTML.html
They do however mention that they got it from us.
There are many such pages. A google search for:
site:http://www.4reference.net Wikipedia turns them up. Top hit is
Mbecker's white board. :-)
