I didn't explicitly include never getting a response to a query in with being unable to find current contact information, but I was mentally including it.
Zvi may be right that a standard of "ask first" would lead to a perception that if someone couldn't find contact information, zie shouldn't record the fic. I still think that "asked and never got an answer" is a more defensible position (should the need for defense arrive) than "never asked."
