Endcards/Credits

Description
Typically at the end of a video.
This is for credits or when the YouTube endcards appear and not for conclusions with information.
Exceptions/ Edge Cases
- YouTube's overlayed endcards do not influence category type decision as they are arbitrarily placed particularly when the segment category is controversial.
- If there is a clean cut to unrelated filler audio or video for YouTube's endcards, mark it as endcards.
- A goodbye doesn't necessarily justify an endcard. A clear audio AND visual cut should seperate a goodbye before it should be included in an endcard.
- This helps avoid jarring cuts to a goodbye followed by an outro segment. Just include the goodbye and withit, remove the cut.
- See Daily Dose Of Internet Intros, just at the end of a video.
- Bloopers should not be marked - see Filler Tangent/ Jokes
- Long "goodbye" sequences can be Filler Tangent/Jokes
- Sponsor segments during endcards should always be cut.
- Youtubers often have patterns when ending their videos. Look at older videos and create similar segments.
- If you do not agree with the way things are done, inform a VIP.
- If Unpaid/Self Promotion / Interaction Reminder (Subscribe) can be included ONLY if they cannot be separated
