I would not consider that a link to Wikipedia is ever appropriate in an
IETF draft. If it were, then an exact date and time would need to be
included in the reference, but I'd be unhappy even with that. (This is
not for copyright reasons.)

Hi,
 
  If a link is referred within the draft being submitted to IETF has
link to other web-site as a reference for other work (such as
wikipedia), does IETF require the copyright for that referred stuff
also.
 
Thx
Samir
