The [[Creative Commons]] [[consortium]] refers to [[parametric license]]s that require attribution as "by-", so the "by-sa" license requires both attribution and [[share-alike]] terms.  The [[GFDL]] license requires the five most prominent authors to be credited so it too has an attribution requirement.

[[Trolls]] seem to think that any attribution interferes with the [[free circulation of fiction]], and that [[usurper]]s and [[Wikimedia corruption]] prevent [[sharealike]] use that would make all [[large public wiki]]s equal.  For instance, they promote [[interwiki link standard]]s that do not put any one source at the centre of the universe, and strongly oppose [[GodKing]]s on all wikis.  This is just one more issue in [[wiki governance]].
