Where would I edit the Author settings for articles?
Does the Author have to do disable it every time?

I thought maybe every Author had the option to choose if his name was visible or not?

It is a per article setting, not a per user setting. Not really sure what its purpose is to be honest. It was just ported over from vBulletin 4 so someone had a need for it there.

For such a big software I can see why this is needed. You have a big site with lots of writers and some may choose to add there name by the article and some don�t.
