PS: I hate Yuku.
No they are not. For one simple reason, there is a fair use exception for criticism and commentary. It is under attack, and that is a shame, but no author ever has the right to demand that you do not discuss their work. Imagine if that right existed, you would never be able to give anything less than a 5 star notice because companies would send takedown notices at comments they didn't like.
As for any author that requests their work not be commented on I'll just say though luck you shouldn't have published it.
Also do note that if you send a DMCA take-down for something that you know or should have known is covered under fair use you are liable for damages and for perjury. Granted that could solve the wiki's money problems, but probably not in a way you want.
E: "Did they... did they just endorse the combination of the JSDF and US Army by showing them as two lesbian lolicons moving in together and holding hands and talking about how 'intimate' they were?"
B: "Have you forgotten so soon? They're phasing out Don't Ask, Don't Tell."
