Another reason for having the author line: Mahara pretty much only has user-generated content. If we don't have an author for a page, people think the page is created by the site itself and don't realize it that it's the fault of a specific user when there is bad content.

It would be like not having an uploaders name on a YouTube channel, on SlideShare etc.

Already for that reason alone I think we need to keep the author line. the user can decide what part of their name to display. That is already quite a bit of freedom.
