Hi Declan, Wow -- that was well spotted!
Good question regarding proper citation of a creative commons licensed resource -- this FAQ provides guidelines: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Frequently_Asked_Questions#How_do_I_properly_attribute_a_Creative_Commons_licensed_work.3F Currently, we're also working on a series of guidelines and a new free workshop covering "Open Content Licensing 4 Educators". I've added a bullet to include proper attribution of creative commons licensed work in the materials - -so we don't forget to cover this.
