Why are we defending the copyright of people who are unwilling to fill
in the question mark in their copyright declaration:
"Copyright 200X,?".  The U.S. courts won't defend your copyright if
you don't identify yourself. I expect that courts in most systems of
law won't. Why are we?

I appreciate that people have good and legitimate reasons for editing
anonymously. I hope they can appreciate that they shouldn't, then, be
allowed to retain copyright in those edits.
