So I've turned to active asking on forums and newsgroups. As far as
newsgroups go, where am I likely to find information on authors of MOD,
MED, STM, S3M, XM and IT formatted songs?

If you already haven't, you might want to take a look at the Amiga Music
Preservation website; especially their artist database:

Hard to give any recommendations about that, but for starters you could
probably simply post your list of tunes here.

Niice. That's helping already.

The dates are all screwed up, and a lot of the filenames are different.
(mod.1989-anumber becomes 1989-anumber.mod, for example)

I'm not done sifting through my collection...I've got over 2700 mod
files, 2400 XM files, 1300 S3M files, 500 IT files, and several hundred
files of the other formats.

Eike Steffen (aka Romeo Knight). See
<http://totem.fix.no/pub/mods/RomeoKnight/>
You might also want to take a cursory glance through the other artist
directories on that website:
<http://totem.fix.no/pub/mods/>
(That collection includes most of the "classic" Amiga demoscene modules
and renowned 4-channel mod composers, without the bland average
everyone-and-their-dog-can-compose-a-mod junk you often see in other
collections.)
Sorry, can't help you with the *.it, *.s3m or *.xm modules. Those are
mostly PC formats, anyway, and I've never followed the PC demoscene
much.
