Maybe I didn't explain myself right, you are demanding to be credited. I understand that. The point I tried to make is: how do you intend that to happen? In a practical sense, I mean. For my understanding, a simple link would suffice to respect the license (like "source: link"), once someone adds a simple link (even in a place not immediately visible to the viewer, such the edit summary in the page's history) the license would be respected and therefore you would not have any more ground to make any kind of demands. Regarding translations, one can avoid the license by simply drastically altering the translation. Remember that if the translation is not word by word, then it's not the same text and therefore it doesn't have to be credited since it's original content (e.g. if I summarize the page while I translated, it's not the same text). Any of these cases would comply with the license, but I would assume they are not the ideal solution for you.

That's why I proposed why not simply use the in-built system of interlanguage links? It seems to me that this would make everyone happy without further discussions.
 * It adds a link-back which visually looks the same as adding it to the page and helps your wiki' SEO too.
 * It's immediately visible to everybody viewing the article and integrated in the Fandom interface.
 * It kinda implies already that the page linked by the interlanguage links are translations or different versions of the same page.

I also tried to understand, why would you take such drastic measures in this situation to begin with. You are the admin of a successful English wiki, aren't you happy that wikis in other languages are taking your wiki as an example and copying it? I don't think you realize how difficult it is to found and expand a wiki when you are alone. If you are a wiki editor, I would assume you want to share your knowledge with other fans like yours, so why wouldn't you let other wikis translate your work? I always helped other wikis when they wanted to implement stuff that I made (like templates and codes) and I always saw English wikis help their international counterparts. I'm not trying to denying your claims, I just trying to understand why would you try to enforce this in such a strict manner and prevent another wiki's growth. I would understand if the wiki in question wasn't on Fandom, but since we are all on the same network, I don't see what's the issue here. Would you have done the same if we were on Wikipedia and someone translated the page you made in another language there? Then what's the difference here?
