6.1.1 Author name Author name is required only if it is consistently presented in the source article in a clear way (at the top of the page, at the very end of the text etc.), especially if there's a name of an actual person.
In less obvious cases, what the user sees when viewing the original article in an ordinary browser has priority over invisible meta-information. Names of actual people are always preferable over entity names like ‘team’ or the name of the website.
It is possible to omit the author in cases where no name can be seen by a regular user opening the original article in the browser. It is possible to omit the name when there‘s no identifiable person, only the website’s ‘team’, ‘editors’, ‘website name’ etc.
We will not accept issues based on absence of author names for articles in which no author can be easily identified by a regular viewing user.
