I was watching Night School and they list dancer. Usually, I would add dancers if they directly followed the cast but these dancers are after the stunt performers, which are generally not considered part of the cast. I think they should be added to the cast but I want to check before I go to the effort. (Note: one dancer, Skyler Semien, is listed as an uncredited cast member which doesn't seem right since she actually is credited.)
In the picture below, you can see the end of the cast, the choreographer, stunt credits and then the dancers. I think this is close enough to be considered cast. If so, I'll go ahead and add them.

I agree that they should be added to the cast.
Yes.
And additional voices also.
But title designers used to name the additional voices as "adr group" or "loop group" sometimes... There are a lot of things that should result in punishment or penalties for those who produce such titles ))

MAthePA,
I'm speaking specifically of animated titles for "additional voices". These are never ADR credits for animated titles. I can understand the distinction in live action movies.

I have to agree with Adrian that these ”Dancer” guidelines tend to be a bit confusing - or at least a bit vague. I mean ”dancers” are also often part of the concerts, shows, galas, theatre, etc where they perform. Not all are part of the fictional films and musicals from the ”golden age”, starring Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly. It seems that when someone says ”dancer”, people start double checking the old Hollywood films.
But yes, I tend to agree that they should be added to Cast, since they’re performing and ”acting”, more than being ”themselves”. Then again the same could be said about singers and bands on stage. But I guess they’re more like ”themselves” on stage than acting.

Whether this is a problem, or not, but we really should not care about what the dancers are on a filmed stage, because we rely on what is in printed credits.
The same is for singers and bands on stage. BTW, they should not be automatically accepted as 'more like ”themselves” on stage than acting', because there are some examples when a fiction band consisted of real-life famous musicians and singers invited from different bands for this specific performance(s).
