Well if it's a MediaWiki extension, it has to be GPL-compatible, otherwise
using it as part of MediaWiki violates the core's own GPL license.
Wrong. WMF can use any software they like on their servers... even
propriatary software. They are _using_ it, not _distributing_ it.
Compatible licencing is only relevant on software that is distributed,
in the WMF's case, MediaWiki and related extensions.
