A name isn't going to do very much to establish that.  I could always
make up a fake name and say that's the author.  Or I could just lie
and claim that I'm the author.  Either way, you'd just have to take my
word for it.

But I'd rather not lie.

So I suppose anonymous works which aren't PD-OLD are prohibited?
