Note: The only credited items in any issues tagged with this concept should be the specific items explicitly profiled, normal rules allowing for background credits do not apply. If a reference panel includes a depiction of a team that is being profiled, only the team can be credited, not all the individual members that appear in the panel (unless they themselves have their own profiles, etc.).
