- Each page gives correct (sortof) license at the bottom, but the link to further information on the license (the link "copyright") does not lead to a functioning page. No proper explaining of the GFDL, and no backlinks to Wikipedia.
- References to Wikipedia are not explicit, even though Wikimedia is mentioned.
- A bottom link pointing to About:DictionPedia leads to a page about Wikipedia.
- The site is heavily filled with Google AdSense Ad's etc.
- What's worse, the site's main page which is simply a search field, claims that content is (C) DictionPedia.
- The page title still has "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia"!

- Links to the articles
- Links to GFDL on gnu.org
- Not a verbatim copy: embedding failure - text inserted between title ("Cold War") and start of Wikipedia text ("The Cold War (September 2, 1945 - December 25, 1991) was"). Either needs the inserted text placed above the header (to make it a verbatim copy) or it needs to comply with the stricter rules on derivative works.
- The French Wars of Religion article is a combination of two Wikipedia articles. There are rules on how you can do this, but I can't remember them off the top of my head.

Mention that the article is from Wikipedia but without link to Wikipedia, GFDL, or the individual aritcle. Claims that the page presents copyrighted material under fair use doctorine of the U.S. copyright law. The publisher seems to be a Dutch. Fair use for an entire article is quite dubious. The extent of their use is not investigated. It may be just one article.

Still badly non-compliant; www.economicexpert.com/a/WPBS.html returns the text of the original 2004 version of this page "New York broadcaster WPBS-TV is one of two PBS flagship stations, the other being KPBS in California...". Content is mangled in such a way as to insert random bits from the California-related articles being wikilinked, before resuming with the description of the New York station. No attribution to author and no GFDL notice on page. (I'm running NoScript under Firefox; any search engine retrieving this page would also see the no-JS version) Not much correlation to the real WPBS-DT article here as is mangled, unattributed and five years out of date. --66.102.80.212 (talk) 15:21, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Listed at Scholarly Open Access: "repackager of online content and wikipedia entries. Seems to specialize in study guides for professional certifications and celebrity biography. Often have 'what you need to know' or '20 most asked questions about' in the title. Over 3000 titles by this publisher are listed via Amazon". Example linked above seems to involve word-switching, which mangles the grammar of the original Wikipedia articles. Other samples: [8] [9].

In at least one item, the cover provides no information about the publisher, author or sources, but the first page mentions GFDL (although the last page actually includes only a link to CC-BY-SA in very small font) and all the individual authors for all Wikipedia articles are listed at the end. The format is identical to PediaPress mwlib and preserves both tables and infoboxes (centred at the beginning of each article). There is no attribution for images, although all of them are listed with their authors at the end.

The licensing information provided on the "back cover" acknowledges that material from Wikipedia has been used, and that this material is licensed under the GFDL, although it also wrongly implies that this material is also "public domain". However, it also asserts "all rights reserved" over the work as a whole, whereas the GFDL requires that the whole of any modification of a work licensed under it—which is what this is—must also be licensed under the same licence or a substantially similar version.
A copy of the GFDL licence doesn't appear to be included anywhere in the publication, as required by the terms of that licence, although a link to an on-line copy of the licence appears to be provided with the licensing information. The licensing information includes an apology for not listing all the authors of the Wikipedia material, and asserts that these can be seen "by following the hyperlink at the bottom of each article". As far as is possible to tell from the Google books copy, such links do appear regularly throughout the the publication, but it doesn't appear to be possible to use the Google books copy to check that these links work and do in fact point to the proper articles.

This site once had terrible compliance, but has improved through the efforts documented below. It now has the notice, "Licensing information:
This article uses material from Wikipedia (credits) and is made available under the terms of the GNU FDL (copy).
Image licensing information is accessible by clicking the image." Credits links directly to the history section (good) and there is a link to a local copy of the GFDL (and the gnu.org version). Unfortunately, the image links don't work. For instance, http://explanation-guide.info/meaning/Plato.html links to http://explanation-guide.info//Plato.png.html but the correct link is http://explanation-guide.info/image/Plato.png.html.

Follow up. Since explanation-guide (EG) did not give attribution for the image at Gbe languages which I created and released under CC-by-2.0, I thought I'd send an email. Below I paste the contents of my first mail, the answer of mr. Lawrence Smith of EG, and my response. I sent my mail to feedback-1607 AT explanation-guide.info and to info AT explanation-guide.info and I got an answer from info AT explanation-guide.info. I will be posting further results soon. - Mark Dingemanse (talk) 21:49, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Dear Sir/Madam,
- As creator of the images used on http://explanation-guide.info/meaning/Gbe-languages.html, http://explanation-guide.info/meaning/African-languages.html, and http://explanation-guide.info/meaning/Nilo-Saharan-languages.html (all copies of the Wikipedia articles of the same title) I object to your use of them.
- The images are released under the Creative Commons Attribution License 2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0). Explanation-Guide, unlike Wikipedia, does not give the required attribution, thereby violating the license.
- I trust that you resolve this issue soon, either by not using the images or by giving proper attribution to the creator.
- Thank you,
- Mark Dingemanse
- Dear Mr. Dingemanse,
- Please accept my apologies: I was not aware that the images are licensed separately to the texts. Thankyou for pointing this out.
- As a short-term solution we have linked each image to an information page which links to the relevant page at Wikipedia. I hope this established attribution. We will try and add a more user-friendly and informative solution in the near future.
- Yours sincerely
- Lawrence Smith
- Dear Mr. Smith,
- thank you for your quick response. However, the short-term solution you propose does not work at present for the images I mentioned. The problem is that the respective Wikipedia articles contain scaled down versions of the original images. In the Wikipedia articles, this scaled down version is linked to the original image and to the attribution information, thereby fulfilling the license requirements. On explanation-guide, this link is lost, the scaled down version is copied, and the information page instead refers to a non-existent page on Wikipedia. Which leaves the issue unresolved.
- I do trust that you will find a solution soon.
- Thank you,
- Mark Dingemanse
- Dear Mr. Dingemanse,
- Once again my apologies. The links now take into account scaling issues and link to the correct Wikipedia page.
- Yours sincerely

Keeps "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia." Links to original Wikipedia article. Uses Wikipedia's GFDL notice ("All text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License.") but links to GFDL article, not actual license. That version of the article does link to the license very early. Pages say "modified by Geona".

Sent a letter using contact form asking for link to original article, proper GFDL notice (without bogus copyright claim), and local copy of the GFDL. Superm401 - Talk 04:30, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Sent out a second email, specifying contents of first email and the requirement to comply. Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry 02:36, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Received an email in reply from Mark Ayres. Email states: "Thanks for your email and your comments regarding GFDL compliance at www.famouspeople.co.uk. I have no record and don't recall receiving the earlier email that you refer too. However, we've reviewed the licence [again] to try and clarify your comments, and we stand corrected on a few points. Personally I don't find this licence a very straightforward one to interpret, but I agree that some changes are needed. As such we've added a locally hosted copy of the licence rather than the remote one at FSI, and this page is linked to by the text "GNU Free Documentation License" on every page on the site. The "Copyright 2007Splashweb, all rights reserved" statement was actually changed some weeks ago to "Copyright Statement. FamousPeople.co.uk is published by Splashweb".The "Copyright Statement" link leads to an updated Copyright Statement page with a link, in context, through to the copy of the licence. Many thanks for highlighting these points, not only to help ensure that compliance, but also these changes will make the copyright issue clearer to our visitors.". Site seems to be in 'medium' compliance from now. Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry 22:53, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Eliam Hernan Hernandez biography at Footbo.com was created there on 21 Jun 2008 with minimal content, but on 1 Sep 2008, the version that is currently there, and has not been edited since then, was copied, word-for-word, with the same typo, from the Wikipedia article which had existed in similar form since 24 July 2008. The Footbo.com page says "Copyright © 2007 Footbo all rights reserved". Footbo is a wiki, so users update the content.

This is a multi-lingual mirror. No mention of Wikipedia or the GFDL on article pages. There's an "About this article" link in bold at the bottom of the page, which acknowledges GFDL, links to the current version of the article, to the discussion page and to the version history. There is little to indicate the importance of this link. It's also always in English, even for mirrored versions of other language Wikipedias. Mentions Wikipedia on http://www.freeglossary.com/h.php?c=about . Appears to be a mirror of all articles.
Site now appears to be non-existent or broken, unable to http, tracrt or ping to it. I will try again in a few days and if not available I think we can presume it is now defunct. Sjc 09:06, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
