Lots of misinformation here.
Pets will never steal exp if you are grouped. You can even be grouped with someone who is 15 zones away and be solo killing, and you will recrive full exp, regardless of how much dmg you did to the mob.
When ungrouped, if your pet deals more damage than you to a mob, the pet eats 50%, not 75% of the exp.
Yes, the wiki is very wrong, and I encourage everyone to test this for themselves.
The nerf was implemented very poorly. Even if this is exactly how it was in classic, it's still a terrible change. It doesn't nerf pet classes, it just make the game far more tedious for them, requiring them to duo or to find someone in another zone to sit in a party with them. It also makes people more likely to box a second account so that they can harmlessly sit in their group while they exp.
