In the end credits of the film Made in Dagenham there's a normal cast section.
After this section there's this:


These are extras are something like that so they do appear in the film.

Should those people get an acting credit as Dagenham Strikers Background Artists?
Think different

Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.

Where in the rules does it say not to enter them?

I voted 'no' because of the "are something like that."  To me, that sounded like you weren't sure whether or not they are actually extras.

I don't think "Thanks to" qualifies as an acting credit. But sure, if you can personally verify that all these people actually appear in the film...

But "Background Artiste" should.

Except that 'Background Artiste' doesn't automatically translate into 'Background Actor'.  When I read it, my immediate thought was that they were artists that worked on the background set pieces.

That being said, I did a little research, and it seems that these people were, in fact, extras that played ladies who were on strike...hence the term 'strikers'.  I have changed my vote accordingly.
