Literally speaking I suspect that you violated BSD: BSD (like
GPL and most open source licences) states:
Redistributions of source code must retain the above copyright
notice
This is a problem for uses like Wikipedia: if you follow
letter you may easily create mess where it is impossible
to see real information among copyright notices. I do not
know how Wikipedia solves this problem. Maybe they forbid
to use _any_ copyrighted material (beyond fair use). Maybe
they have double standards (reject/accept based on some
arbitrary criteria). Maybe they ignore that and have problem
with something else.
