| Posted: | | | | Do you think that the new group dividers should be used for Captains in the English Army & Soldiers in the English Army in the credits below? I ask because they are clearly grouped, but not with dividers as we usually see them. The current role credits are done this way: Role (Group) | | | If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world. -- Thorin Oakenshield |

| Posted: | | | | I would not use group dividers for these. Cast with group dividers in the DVDP credits window are given a prominence that is not warranted by their appearance in the film credit roll.
I feel that listing the cast without a divider, repeating the role, is a much closer representation of the actual film credits. I would only use group dividers when the credits include a group heading.
Just my 2c. I wouldn't vote no to either option. |

For what it's worth, I agree with you that we shouldn't use the group header when it's only repeating roles, but neither the rules nor Ken agrees with me and I haven't been able to come up with an argument against it (the rules aren't set in stone, so please head over to the contribution rules forum of you want to change it) Second, there is a group header here. It's not just repeating the roles, so in this case, I'm all for including it. | | | The colour of her eyes, were the colour of insanity | | | Last edited: by reybr |
