From the site you linked: “You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.” The Mother page did not (and still does not) reference the original Wikipedia article, so it’s plagiarism and violates the license. I don’t believe the edit history qualifies as proper attribution, either, as it’s not very visible and lacks the name and date of the original article. I also saw this message on my edit window: “The StrategyWiki administration does not condone plagiarism or the use of materials from any other source. Period.” The Wikipedia article may be legal to copy from when properly attributed, but wiki policy seems to discourage it anyway. Bandee of the Stars (talk) 04:14, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
I didn’t see your latest edit when I posted the above comment. The source seems to be properly attributed now, so I don’t believe there’s a problem now. Bandee of the Stars (talk) 04:32, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
