Hi,
I have already pointed some problems with the collection extension (see mediawiki.org), but now I see a new one that is less acceptable than the others : when I ask for a pdf file on a page composed with some others pages, the list of contributors in the end of the file could be false, because the extension creates this list from the history of the main page... So, if you have only made edits on the namespace "page", this extension will deny you all credits for your work.
I think that this massive copyright violation is a good reason for asking to suppress this extension from Wikisource.
Thanks.
Marc

This problem would occur whenever any transclusion occurs? If it is, this problem may affect many other projects.
If it only happens when LST is used, it is a Wikisource specific problem.

I have said that this is a problem with the namespace "page", wich is only on Wikisource.

This would only cause a copyvio problem in translations. Right now there are few enough of those that we should be able to make notations by hand. J'accuse is the only translation I know that use Page: Can someone see what can be done to give the proper credit? I am barely online this week.
