On the dr website it looks like there's a little apostrophe in Shadow's, kinda hard to tell but it looks like its supposed to be "Shadow's"- Glemm

I don't see how its any different saying "Thanks to X and Y" for doing this than wording it like "After hard work and hours of puzzling, X and Y figured out the above code to mean". It's still an "attribution" just worded differently.

It's one thing if it's a single and unique event unlikely to occur twice, it's another if it's puzzle or system that any number of people could have contributed to. This has larger implications for all sorts of cases, and so I'm making the ruling that except for special cases, attributions should not be included.

Attributions

I don't see how its any different saying "Thanks to X and Y" for doing this than wording it like "After hard work and hours of puzzling, X and Y figured out the above code to mean". It's still an "attribution" just worded differently. The number code was a hard cipher, and like anything on Elanthipedia, I feel it's appropriate to give credit where credit is due. --Ysselt 15:44, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Because several people figured it out independently (myself included). Do we really want articles to turn into a race with whoever getting there first getting their name on it? It's one thing if it's a single and unique event unlikely to occur twice, it's another if it's puzzle or system that any number of people could have contributed to. This has larger implications for all sorts of cases, and so I'm making the ruling that except for special cases, attributions should not be included.
