Revision as of 16:30, 13 July 2006
It is becoming more obvious that we're going to need a more explicit way of dealing with crediting people who have ported other people's games. I get the impression that contributors want to keep porting credits separate from normal author credits; perhaps we want a 'Porting Credits' section? Also, I would really prefer to see ported game references to be in the style of:
- Ported Game Name (porter: Porter's Name; date; ported-platform). Ported from Previous Game Name (authors; date; previous-platform).

There's something I don't understand here:
Games that were ported, translated, illustrated, or remade should be listed in the Porting Credits section.
I don't think games that were illustrated by the person should be listed in Porting Credits, if they were never released without graphics! Which section should they be listed in instead? Author Credits, Other credits, or another one?
Also: I think this page should be more precise about which categories the people should be added to (Illustrators, Interviewed, Translators, French, etc.), like in the Games (style guide) page.
