Description
Topic
Hi!
I’m Kit, and I’ve joined the Processing Foundation recently as project lead for p5.js.
I am so excited to be part of this amazing community.
I'm opening this issue to find out what you think about attribution on the People page of the p5.js website.
The p5.js project uses the All-Contributors specification, which is kept up to date on the github README: https://github.com/processing/p5.js/?tab=readme-ov-file#contributors
This list then is manually transferred to the People page: https://p5js.org/people/
In the current version, you can see all the contributor names when you scroll down.
I'm wondering if people would feel alright with rather creating a prominent link to the list in the GitHub README? I imagine a page like this, with a short text introducing the contributor attribution policy, and then a link/button to go to the list:
This proposal would replace the long list at the bottom of that page. Additionally, every page that currently likes "p5.js contributors" to the people page would actually link to the GitHub repository that lists all the contributors.
Looking forward to hear opinions on current vs proposed version, or other proposals of how to provide credit to p5.js contributors on the website!

Research direction
Review the p5js.org People page and the contributors section of the p5.js GitHub README, then identify the website pages that link to “p5.js contributors.” First resolve whether the proposed attribution-page change is accepted; done would mean the agreed contributor presentation is implemented and affected links point to the intended contributor list.
