The blunt of it: accreditation's not going to happen here.

Typically, the articles are not supposed to name their writers. Sometimes, however, the articles will mention their sources when the information has been empirically gathered—and when these sources are mentioned, it's mostly as a citation or reference with a link in the footnote.

However, what you've contributed isn't quite research so much as reading. It's your analysis and theory, not the conclusion of any data and testing that actually has to do with the game.

If you want to spread your ideas (because I'm not saying they're bad ideas), the more appropriate place would be a blog post. Blog posts are personally credited, and they invite discussion from other people visiting the wiki. As a plus, more people would see it there (since blog posts get a link on the front page) than they would here.
