Community voice actors

This page didn't exist yet? Anyway, are there any good reasons why voice actors in community-made maps should not be listed on the Voice actors page? Not even with any pictures or special table formatting. Just a simple bulleted list. Are they relegated to only be listed individually and separately on each article about the maps their voice is heard on, and on the Non-player_characters list?

Personally I think they should be listed, but not as elaborately as the other voice actors. Just a "community voice actors" section under it.

Pictogram plus.png  Adding a section in the Voice Actors page is not a bad idea. Moreover, Valve demonstrated that they're willing to add community voice actors now, meaning that there might be more community voice actors in the future.

Pictogram minus.png (specifically, getting their own NPP page) I get where you guys are coming from. Where I come from is the question of whether voice acting on a Community Map is ever so much more notable than Community Map developers that the Community voice actors get a page but the Community Map developers do not.
The core purpose of the NPP pages is to provide a means of linking the names of Real Persons in the wiki to multple topics within the TFwiki and the Real Internet. This was meant to end squabbling about which Internet page to use to link a Real Person while avoiding biographies of Real Persons. I don't see every Community voice actor and developer getting a NPP page, other than EmNudge :) maybe.
Community voice actors and developers are generally, as a rule, linked to their Steam Profile. I do not yet see a need to provide them more links than that, so, the core purpose of a NPP page does not apply.
Perhaps GrampaSwood could eloborate a more about "Just a "community voice actors" section under it." DYM a list at the bottom of Voice actors?

This discussion is not about their own page, but about the inclusion of them on the Voice actors page.

Pictogram plus.png Subtable on Voice actors or Announcer, but it wouldn't be a Notable Person Page. Yes, you are correct, I misread the intent of "This page didn't exist yet?" This Talk page is about how to propose, structure, and write Notable Person Pages.
Listing Community Voice actors as a subsection of Voice actors would be "OK"
1) Would we ever think of listing all of the Community
map developers ever?
2) All Community voice actors are Announcers, effectively.
Would it be better to name them on Announcer?

1) Map developers are listed on the map itself.
2) For the sake of the future having non-announcer VA's (possibly), I'd just say "community voice actors".
