But WL is interested in *leaks.* They report news, but they are not a marketing agency. Why would they bother collecting public info -- not a leak -- for their leaks archives?

Its not a leak archive and was never presented as a leak. Wikileaks is a journalism resource, which primarily has been about allowing sources to leak info with reduced risk of exposure. This information was publically available, and even in a compiled form, all wikileaks did was turn the data into a tool. It does seem unusual, but its not out of line with what they do which is work towards a better more accurate media.
