Then don't do that. That's really not good with Wikipedia templates because you really don't know if they're going to work here. In most cases, Wikipedia templates are sufficiently advanced that they have templates nested in templates for several levels. So it's important to install one after the other to be sure that you've got the whole chain properly seated.

However, I do understand the appeal of Special:Import. If you're going to do that, you can attach a little template at the bottom of each of the documentation pages that gives the link back to where you got it from. Or maybe you can get by with a phrase like "Imported from wikipedia.org, from the page of the same name". I do that phrase when I import from another wikia wiki, because one wikia community probably can't sue another wikia community, and that phrase is within the spirit of what CC-BY-SA 3.0 requires. But usually with wikipedia derived stuff I take the time to be more specific.
