This isn't a bug for each wiki because I didn't want to spam everybody by creating 15 new bugs.

I did a quick check through the wikis listed on https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/private.dblist (it's generally quite easy to guess what the URL for each database name is, but https://git.wikimedia.org/blob/operations%2Fmediawiki-config.git/HEAD/wmf-config%2FInitialiseSettings.php#L1135 is a good reference otherwise)

The following wikis are using the CC footer:
arbcom_enwiki
auditcomwiki
boardgovcomwiki
boardwiki
chairwiki
chapcomwiki
execwiki
fdcwiki
grantswiki
iegcomwiki
ilwikimedia (chapter)
movementroleswiki
searchcomwiki
spcomwiki
transitionteamwiki

The following private wikis don't seem to agree on exactly what text to use:
checkuserwiki has "Content is copyrighted (© all rights reserved) by the Wikimedia Foundation"
collabwiki has "Unless otherwise noted, text is copyright Wikimedia Foundation and may not be distributed or used without permission. Additional terms may apply."
internalwiki has "Content is copyrighted by the Wikimedia Foundation"
officewiki has "The contents of this Office Wiki are confidential. Only users that have signed the Wikimedia Foundation's Confidentiality Agreement are authorized to have access."
ombudsmenwiki has "All content copyright Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. See Terms of Use for details."
otrs_wikiwiki has "Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License; additional terms may apply. By using this site, you agree to the Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, and Confidentiality Notice. Please be aware that this is a private wiki, so content should not be shared externally."
stewardwiki has "Content is copyrighted (© all rights reserved) by the Wikimedia Foundation."
wikimaniateamwiki has "Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License; additional terms may apply. By using this site, you agree to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. Please be aware that this is a private wiki, so content should not be shared externally."

I think the remaining 5 private wikis have no text.

I am resetting the status of this issue to default because there has been no progress in the last six months. Feel free to set to ASSIGNED again when somebody actually works on fixing this. Thanks.

I made a suggestion about it in Bug #45767 but got no response.
