True. It wasn’t usually user-facing, though. Frankly, I don’t like it. In publishing at least it was fairly common to have lines about certain levels of cooperation and contribution but those were largely relegated to the Masthead rather than plastered throughout a given article. Industry people could find the info, but readers didn’t have to have their view cluttered. Now with paying journalists to do their jobs being a matter of contention even more of the articles can be cluttered with ads and it’s being shared about as a net positive.
