WS Export: Create separate credits page that can be viewed by everyone
Open, Needs TriagePublic5 Estimated Story Points

Description

As a Wikisource user, I want the list of proofreaders of a book to be displayed within Wikisource Export, so everyone can easily view them, whether or not they download a book & whether or not the book has credits listed in them.

Background: As part of T274959, we are creating the option to disable credits on the Wikisource Export page. This means that some people who previously saw credits in books may no longer see them. Meanwhile, there is already the problem that credits are not easy to view unless one downloads a book. For this reason, this work is to create a separate credits page.

Acceptance Criteria:

  • Create a means for displaying list of proofreaders for each book
  • Add link to credits on "About" page

Visual Example of Current List on "About" page:

Random, possibly not useful or relevant, thought: there's an effort somewhere to tighten the privacy policy in such a way that IP addresses are no longer visible (not even to Checkusers). IPs are also not very useful as an entry in a "Contributors to this book" list. Perhaps both issues could be addressed by grouping all logged-out contributions at the end as "…, and n anonymous contributors."?

Thank you @Xover. As a matter of fact, we decided to remove IPs contributions from the list as part of T257886. The same logic will be used to generate this page so they will no longer be displayed.
