AVID:Requests for Comment/Remove credits from pages
Hi, and this is my first RfC. One thing I've noticed is that the page credits (which were a holdover from the pre-Wetpaint days) have gotten less relevant and more of a relic over time. They're hardly updated (one notable exception was when we updated Jess Williams' credit to remove their deadname), and I'm pretty sure they only represent a few of the users who edited there in most cases. Besides, we're probably the only wiki that does this (you don't see, say, Wikipedia doing page credits).
And that's why I think the page credits should go. What do you think?

Support
Support I was just about to make the same RfC. LurkingManiac (talk) 04:53, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
Support I wish I was able to do this with strong support. This is amazing. They, to me, are just random filler.
Abstain
Oppose
Oppose If I have to be honest, the credits do give out good information about how users handled pages. Even if it doesn't list all collaborators, referring to more notable ones can provide the user with the information needed. I know you wanted this to be like all other wikis but AVID to me has a charm that makes it more different when compared to other wikis. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 05:20, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
Oppose After reading other users' reasons why they want the credits to stay (and maybe that's exactly why we still have them in the first place), I'm opposing my own RfC. · Talk · Edits 05:22, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
Comments
The credits do have at least one important role, which is to preserve attribution for older articles made on prior incarnations of the site where editing logs may have since been lost due to platforms going defunct.
