That does raise an interesting question - while the source of wikidata
is claimed to be CC0 the source of wikipedia isn't:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Copyrights
A side-issue here is that that as I understand it* isn't compatible with
ODBL, so those people using:
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/source=wikipedia
probably shouldn't be using that as a source.
However the bit that I really don't understand is that, to take an
example wikidata page:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q23098
the source of that is from other, non-CC0-licensed places - how can the
result be CC0?
Cheers,
Andy

jurisdiction in which OSM is based.
