Dear friends,
at the WikiCon 2014 in Cologne (the Wikimania for the German speaking
countries) we discussed similar issues, together with some external people.
Can one quote from WP, under what circumstances, and why not. I hope that
someone will do something with our etherpad notes.

No, only German projects.

I agree all Wikipedia articles are sort of peer reviewed. When I speak
about GA/FA I refer to it as Wikipedia's semi-formal peer review process.
With respect to authorship, the 5th to 10th contributors by number of
editors were contacted and asked if they wished to be listed as an author.

I understand that importing shows edits with the same username as if they
were done in the target wiki.
My question is different:
1. Is it the usual practice for the German Wikipedia to do an import when

* I did some very strange edits, such as adding a category with an
*English* name[2]
"Why would I do such a thing?", I thought.
Then I realized
Yeah, this is really a great thing!
Just remember not to communicate, in a way, that "at last, we have a peer
reviewed Wikipedia article!"..
.
I have myself had twho scientific articles peer reviewed for Scientific
periodicals, and know very well that this is quite a process.
But then we also hav
