I'm looking for guidance of the sort: Doing
X, Y, and Z, is generally
sufficient to comply with CC-BY-SA. It need not be minimally
sufficient, and probably shouldn't be, since any advice we give ought
to be at a level that is clearly black and white, and not gray. Maybe
we necessarily limit that advice to text and certain traditional print
mediums, but I do think there needs to be something direct about
acceptable standards for attribution.
I agree. We'll try to formulate that attribution guideline as part of
the full proposal (and it'll be discussed further from there before we
go into voting). As I mentioned earlier up-thread, it'll likely look
similar to what is suggested here:
