Thanks Mark for pointing me to the new PDF exporter; hope it will improve
the accuracy of data gathering from file pages.
BTW, I improved the file page [1], and now contributor is attributing
properly [2]. But it still failed to fetch the license. So my understanding
is that the current script is trying to fetch information from author and
license fields. If that attempt fails, it simply lists the editors of the
file page which is wrong.
As Mark mentioned above, this is not a GFDL issue. We need to improve our
software in both sides; at the Commons page where data is collected, and at
tools which gather the data available there. Hope developers at both side
([3], [4]) will consider this.
