As Wikipedia shows, FSF has/had a lot of power (Wikipedia was originally GFDL licensed)

It still is licensed under the GFDL, I'm not seeing how this is an example of them having power, and this is the GFDL is not the GPL.

Significant portion of the text on Wikipedia is now dual licensed Creative Commons and GFDL (specifically unversioned), something that was made possible by change introduced in later version of GFDL (1.3, afaik) that didn't exist in earlier one.
The licensing move was done in 2009.
