Thanks Nathan,

Whether other projects follow what we do on EN wiki is up to them.
Licensing choices vary by project, EN wiki allows Fair use  which neither
DE wiki nor Commons allows.

Re Risker's point, there is no difference in the current copyright between
vanished users and others, but logically there should be. By attribution
means you want to be attributed, vanishing means you don't. It seems
logical to me that the process of vanishing at least include the option of
waiving attribution.
