I'm not really sure if there is a precedent in place for cases such as these. With this release, there's several skits on such a short release, and these skits contain no credits with the release. We can't just simply put "A. Yates" as the writer for them and then "Ross Robinson" and/or "Ben Cybulski" for the producer on these... because that would be assumption on our part and not fact. However... with these fields blank on the skits, it looks a little off. So...

My thought was that this makes it a little easier to follow the credits of the album, since there's not empty spaces and such. It may also detour anonymous users or other users from making "good faith" additions for these tracks (ie "A. Yates" and "Ross Robinson" for the producer). However... this doesn't quite look right either, so... any thoughts? Leave it alone, try something else, etc? – Mizery Made(talk · contribs)02:45, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
Usually when no writer/producer is credited (as in the case of skits, intros etc.), the field is left blank. However, I agree that some indication could be useful; I don't know if that has been discussed before, couldn't find anything relevant in the template talk archives. How about an n-dash (–)?
