IMHO collaborative tools like a wiki and authorship are incompatible
concepts. In a wiki that is actively used it rarely makes sense to
attribute a page to a single author.

I also wonder why it is important to know who wrote which tip -- other
than maybe identifying "interesting" patterns in the editing history.
Listing the authors in the editing history should be sufficient and it
does more justice to everyone because it's easy to find out who
contributed what.

So I'd vote for removing the author field.

Tom.
