We're not unlocking them simply because we then can't be sure how users will change them. Communities have those footers embedded, assuming that they're maintained by staff, and who may not realize for a while that that's no longer the case. At least this way we can be sure no one makes nonsensical changes.

However, you're more than welcome to copy the template you want to take care of (adding attribution and making it clear this isn't an official Fandom template) and use it as you see fit. You can contact the communities using the previous footer about switching it out, and make it all your own.
