I think the fact that we *ourselves* make a point of
being discreet
about attribution makes it more reasonable for us to go with #1 - as a
photographer, I would feel short-changed if the authors were
prominently credited but I wasn't, whilst I wouldn't feel offended at
being relegated to the small print on p.350 if the authors themselves
were in the small print on p.348.
Does that latter distinction make sense?
Not really, 99% of our text is written by Wikipedians, who have no
expectation to be prominently attributed; we have taken many of our best
pictures from outsiders, many of whom expect more prominent credit to be
given. They don't care about, and haven't ever explicitly agreed to
Wikipedia's internal rules on attribution.
