I haven't noticed this before but on the front page the "written by" has the author's login name while the article page has their real name.

For example, arn's article says "Written by arn" on the main page, and "Written by arnold kim" on the article page.

I was just wondering if this was intentional. Seems like it should be consistent on both pages.

For whatever it's worth, I think this only happens with arn and longofest. Whenever any of the rest of us write an article, it uses our username in both places. So I'd imagine it was intentionally set up this way, but I don't know why.
