The GFDL requires you to credit *all* authors, not just 5.  5 have to be on
the title page (where Wikipedia currently has none).  They all have to be in
the section entitled History.

There are lots of places where Wikipedia is *materially* non-compliant with
the GFDL.  Crediting of users who have made no attempt to identify
themselves is not, IMHO, one of them.
