This site allows reuse for non-commercial purposes as long as credit is given and everything stays under the same license, so this could have been avoided if they had given proper credit (I'm assuming the non-commercial part is already being complied with if it's a wiki).

If they're copying from us, they must give us credit, other licensing rules notwithstanding. If they've removed or changed the offending content, then we're good. If not, then someone should notify them that they may be violating our CC license. Past that, it's up to the admins to take any necessary action.

As of now, the content is still up. Is it as simple as I personally should go and join the wiki to notify them of this or can I leave it to you mods to do that? Because I'm not sure if I'd feel great joining the wiki just to call them out.
