I don't get it. It's just scraping wikipedia to come up with that definition...

The thing is google asked people to report URLs that were scraping sites and were outranking original sources, so this guy posted a snapshot where google was scraping wikipedia to come up with definition of 'scraper site' and was outranking wikipedia. :P

Wikipedia content is licensed for redistribution. That isn't scraping.

yes, Wikipedia content is licensed for redistribution but the point here was websites outranking the original sources.
