When we create a wiki page with content from other places (whose license is
compatible with our wikiproject), we need to cite the authors of the work.
Commonly this is made through the edit summary (because it will be kept in the
history of the page). Nonetheless, the current system for generation of PDFs
only add the authors which have edited the page in the wiki.

We do need to give credit the real authors the same way we give credit to the
wiki users.

That said, it is necessary to have some way of indicate in the collection page
additional authors, so that they can be added to the list together with te wiki
editors.
