Please Ken.

Particularly in older films I would like to be able to add uncredited to crew as we can the cast.

Yeah, it would be great to have the never ending uncredited discussions for crew as well as cast! 

But seriously I think this is a good idea - there is little logic to accept it for one but not the other.

Interesting.  The XML export has an uncredited flag for Crew and the contribution rules even mention not flagging a Crew in the Crew as uncredited if they show up in the Cast list.

I think because we are so limited in which crew we can add to the database, I can't see this being a major problem. Would be handy for adding uncredited writers etc.

I guess cast credits are somehow easier to document... For instance, if you spot an uncredit well known actor and provide a time stamp, I wouldn't argue with that.

Really? I don't see it. I would have implemented it in my import function of the Viewer if it were available.
There is only FirstName, MiddleName, LastName, CreditType, CreditSubtype, BirthYear and CreditedAs for crew.

You're right, it's not in there.  I must have gotten my wires crossed with the CreditedAs when I was creating my import routines for a Yahoo widget.
