Whoever tags the mob for damage first, gets looting rights and experience (if any) from the kill.
If a higher level toon or toons assist in the kill, depending on their level in relation to the taggers level, they can steal some of the experience.
For both Classic Warcraft and Burning Crusade, the magic level was 9.
At lower levels, the magic number was actually higher then 9, but 9 quickly becomes the magic number and maintains being the magic number from a fairly early point.
As in, if you're 10th level and someone 19th level or lower assists you, in killing a mob you have already tagged, you receive full experience.
If the helper(s) are 20th or above, you receive a percentage of experience equivalent to the percentage of damage you (or your group) did.
I'd assume the 9 level differential is still in place for WotLK.
Once you're 71st, your 80's can do any percentage of damage to a mob, with the tagger getting full experience.
Even prior to 71st, quests will be dramatically faster with the mobs dropping so quickly.
The caveat is to not do this in instances, as in drop group and kill after it is tagged, and then regroup to avoid being booted.
Someone did this during the first day of WotLK and had their level reset to 70th shortly after dinging 80 (12 hours earlier then of the Warlock who had the pocket priest).
