I, for one, have written a piece of javascript that removes disputed text from 
the page before I contribute.

And for Christ's sake, why such arrogance in wording this? "you hereby agree 
that such credit is sufficient in any medium" - no I most certainly do not! 
You could have at very least have decency to say "you agree to be credited in 
this way" - still not ideal but at least you don't require of people to agree 
that black is whit.
