This guideline is too verbose and doesn't require an extraneous explanation given how straightforward it is. We really need to keep these terse. Condense it without losing any meaning:

Eligible aliases must be credited names in official adult video content only.

We needn't explain the type of disallowed names because the above explicitly excludes all names except those in credited "official" scenes of adult video content.

The only point that requires clarity is the term official. Don't let the contributor interpret the meaning. What does official mean in one sentence or less? Or is there a more appropriate term to use? Would professional be a better term? Maybe something like this,

Eligible aliases must be credited names in professional adult video content only. Professional content includes performances published by adult studios, ManyVids, Clips4Sales, and other studios listed on StashDB.

As a side note, this guideline seems at odds with the allowance of OnlyFans and other performers who may not even have done "official" video content. It's confusing that we make an exception for these performers, but want to exclude their aliases.
