For example, with something like the Dreamcast collab, you could have the credits categorized by Animation, Art, Music, Voice Acting, and Organizing. That way, if people want to know, for instance, who a specific animator is, or they're looking for the NG profile of a specific Voice Actor, they can expand out that category. Or, you can have people expand out the whole credits section and just peruse the whole lineup!
I also don't think this should be a part of every multi-author project, especially if it's only two to seven people. But if you hit a minimum of X people - say, 10 - credited on a project, then the categories would sort everyone out. Especially on massive projects like these collabs or things like Tankmas, categories on credits might help a bit, but that's the idea I'm tossing out lol
My concern with something like this is it creates a lot more clicking to reveal the full list. We will be showing the full list if it's under a certain threshold, so for example there wouldn't be a case where only one or two people get cropped out.
