# Attribution author name …

 * Hello friends:
 * This isn’t a bug, but I didn’t know where to turn for this in-practice question.
 * **Regarding importing a Post**:
 * Scenario 1) If an author is identified by WP RSS Aggregator, is it possible to
   place that author’s name somewhere, but without adding them as a user to one’s
   WP site?
 * Scenario 2) If an author is **not** identified, what is the recommended way for
   providing a fallback user for attribution? What have you used? (I’m seeking advice
   here). For example, do you use, say, “Staff writer at Example.com”?
 * Please don’t flame me for asking. =:). I’m trying to do the right thing attribution-
   wise and not get dinged for sloppiness.
 * Thank you in advance for the pointers!
