Erm...
Last time I checked the GFDL requires attribution to the authors to be
preserved, not attribution to the source.
That's the reason why it's perfectly fine for us to export a page
history from Wikipedia and import it without adding a template to the
top of the page. Because the history is preserved.
Of course, only copying the first revison, and infringing on Wikia's
Service Mark would be a different case. Not to mention the fact that
users are not the same.

It's nothing to do with aoc.wikia.com I can assure you that.
But on the pages imported from the wikia, there is a comment inserted of
"from wikia" basically.
But I would think the domain infringes on wikia's IP... I know domains
ending with "bay" ebay used to lay the heavy on them to change.

But what is the stance when someone does a complete export of a wikia
wiki?
IE:
http://aoc.wikia.com imported to http://aocwikia.org

The copy violates copyright as it does not link back to the original or
specify the copyright license of the original. There should be a notice
on the page.
