equally subject to German law if he edits the English Wikipedia,

and the law of a country that speaks that language.
The OP said that the French Wikipedia was illegal, not that
contributing to Wikipedia while in France could be illegal. They are
very different things.
And you said "French law doesn't apply." You didn't say "France
is
unlikely to be able extradite people from the United States over the
issue." They are very different things.
