!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] (or [authorship]) conveys the [legal] name of the [entity] that [creates] the initial [data] value. 

%%information
This may or may not be an [authoritative Entity], or the [Attribute Provider]
%%


For [example], the [Attribute Provider] generates the attribute value through a [Derivation|Derived] process, then the [Attribute Provider] would be the [{$pagename}]. 
The key distinction between the [{$pagename}] and the [Attribute Provider] is the act of initially generating, capturing, or provisioning the [Attribute Value], rather than just asserting the attribute’s value to an [Relying Party]. Inclusion of [{$pagename}] [metadata] element provides the [Relying Party] with substantial insight, but at a potential cost to the individual as it may also reveal additional information about the subject to whom the attribute value is bound. 

For [example], this value could reveal employment status and location, socio-economic information, or even health history; all of which may have unintended and potentially negative consequences. Selection and use of this [metadata] element should be carefully considered based on both [authorization] needs as well as [Privacy Considerations].

For example, when leveraging attributes for access to moderate assurance level services that involve customers (i.e., non-enterprise users) it may be sufficient for the [Relying Party] to request an [Attribute Value] verification method without the origin element-which can reveal unnecessary information about a subject. The original source of the information may not be essential as long as the value has been verified using an acceptable method.
