Attribution
You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform your copyrighted work — and derivative works based upon it — but only if they give credit the way you request.
Share Alike
You allow others to distribute derivative works only under a license identical to the license that governs your work.
Noncommercial
You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform your work — and derivative works based upon it — but for noncommercial purposes only.
No Derivative Works
You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform only verbatim copies of your work, not derivative works based upon it.
But there is one thing in common on all 4...
ALL LET YOU DISTRIBUTE THEIR WORK!!!

Irrelevant, most addons are not liscenced under the GPL.
Furthermore: They were not redistributing them, they were using WoWI to do that. If they were redistributing addons, then there wouldn't be people here crying that WoWM was broken because it would still be working just fine.
