Is this responsible disclosure?

In general, note that the people demanding responsible disclosure (i.e. major vendors) also greatly benefit from it. (In general, creating and enforcing an ethical norm is not itself an ethically neutral act.)

There is no such thing as responsible disclosure.

Not sure I really agree. I think it would be courteous to politely inform yahoo! of their mistake. Potentially more rewarding, as well.

Lots of things that don't exist have Wikipedia pages.

Sounds like an affirmative claim, can you prove that? ;)
