Prior CC statements with specific reference to Wikipedia
indicate that the CC copyleft does not apply to that case: the two
works are separate. With wikipedia, the issue is that some photos
are CC while the text is mostly GFDL. They like to have dual-licensing
at wikipedia, but it is evidently not demanded by the license.
Cheers,
Terry
