There are things that we can't credit, such as if I were to grab a MIDI piano note that I can't really credit to a certain group, but we can give credit where credit is due.
Which is why this can't be a rule. Rules should be absolute. This should be a guideline at best. Credits can be made into the first post.
I just don't understand why people want more rules to restrict them, especially on small things like this, when there are far more important rules that should be changed because they either don't make sense, or are restricting something in a way it shouldn't.
If you want to add a SBer into tags, go ahead. Don't force everyone to do it, because it's just not logical to credit this before crediting certain other things which in most cases can't be credited, but have more impact. If it's not possible to credit
everyone for their work, then you shouldn't force this as it can only create more inconsistencies and pressure from the rules.
It's really weird how a lot of people, generally in staff positions, seem to always bring up the point "Well they made something but they didn't put much WORK into it."
You're twisting my words. I never said people put little work into stuff, I just made a scenario of a possible case where such a thing can happen. When you are making rules, you need to think of every possible scenario and how that scenario will be affected. Based on this you need to weight if it's even worth making a rule, or just a guideline.
Not sure if all this matters anymore though, since:

I guess we take our requests towards the council now?
