Wiki Discussion

But I do want to show respect, anyone who has written half a document knows how much work it is to discover information, so thanks to: geiger, Yousei, Imzogelmo, Novalia Spirit, Evil Peer, Terii Senshi, assassin, Lenophis, Corundum, Cless, Lord J, Master Zed, Gau of the Veldt, Mnrogar, JCE3000GT, Angelo26, contributors of the wiki and anyone I missed and will add in an edit.

I feel the same way. Some people like Novalia Sprite have copyrights on their document (like the event bits list) so I think we should be respectful of not re-copying in integrity the list in a wiki page. However quoting or referencing some event bits would what I consider a "fair-use" of copyrighted material. I don't mind about giving specific credits on the wiki but everyone should be free to credit (or not) how they want.

All knowledge is based on previous one. This is a great debate in the patent industry. Should a certain discovery be 25% private and 75% public since 75% of the discovery was based on previous public knowledge? I think we can make a similar analogy to ROM hacking. Lots of things would not yet been discovered if disassemblies did not existed as an example.

I think the people you mention in the quote should have their name in a "thank you page" on the wiki

When I have added about 200 or so plugins to one page the loading gets a bit overboard. One solution might be hiding the players with a spoiler tag.

Yeah I'm not 100% satisfied with this plugin since first it is based on Flash and second the problem you mention. For now the solution you mention is good though I suspect even within a spoiler tag the players are loaded... I'll probably look into another solution or write my own lightweight one but for now we can keep this and try the spoiler way.
