It's pretty clear how the the following credit into the database:
Visual Effects by XYZ Company
Visual Effects Supervisor - John Doe

The database entry is:
Divider: Visual Effects by XYZ Company
Credit: John Doe - Visual Effects

But how should credits like this be entered into the database:

Just enter the company name into the divider or come with something like Special Effects by West EFX?
In fact this credit actually appears later within the credits, just without any person liked to it:

I mean the rules state:
When including Company names in group dividers, use full description i.e. "Visual Effects by ILM" instead of "ILM". Omit company suffixes such as LLC, Ltd., Inc. Omit location specific suffix.

The other Special Effects is listed with a location
Credit him or not?
Think different

Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.

I would credit both. I wouldn't use a header for West FX, even though it is listed later in the credits. I put it in the custom role .

Agreed. I would list Erick Brennan and Bruno Van Zeebroeck as well - assuming there's no "Special Effects Supervisor" credited, that is - but I would not use a divider.
