In Italy we recently discovered a similar case, with a guy writing books copying verbatim wikipedia articles. He didn't respect the license, selling the content as his own copyright, however. The funny thing was that he forgot at least one "Citation needed" tag, so we had a lot of fun at it.wp Village Pump http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bar/Discussioni/Un_libro_fatto_con_wikipedia_e_i_%22citazione_necessaria%22 What one of us did was to put a review saying "Don't buy this book, it's a copy from Wikipedia". The book was retracted from the website a few days afterwards.
