Hey Udana, I have recently came to an impasse of two points of view concerning credit. The wiki rules say that users are not allowed to sign their edits (i.e. claim credit for information submitted). However, some pages give explicit credit to users who contributed heavily to it. For instance, many of the "Script" pages have instances of credit given to users of this wiki (e.g. Script by "Wiki User"). It seems that such actions are a bit unfair to other contributers, who may never have contributed a single solid piece (such as a completed script), but have been constantly editing pages (in some cases heavily), on which their name will never be featured for credit. Also, in my opinion, this is a wiki, where all knowledge (intellectual property) relinquished by users becomes public property, unless taken from another source, accassible by others.

Please help me understand the functioning of this wiki concerning the afformentioned issue. I just wish to understand how to proceed in such situations. Thank you in advance.
